Thanks for the recipe. It turned out great and tasted excellent!
This is somewhat different then I've been told and have enjoyed. We never used allspice? From what my mother has explained, Sage is used and salt and pepper and only hog head no beef.
8 lbs pork (lean ,fatty, or a combination my grand mother wouldnt eat it if it was lean cut of pork)
1 lbs liver
4 lbs steel cut oats
5 T salt ( start with 4 and add to taste at end
Boil meat 2 hours (enough water to cover meat plus ) with half the salt, liver goes in last 1/2 hour (When done save the water
Soak oats with 1/2 salt marjoram and thyme ( we use a 18 qt. Roasting pan) with a tea kettle of water( original recipe) use enough water to just cover oats
When meat is done grind with onions add to oats ,water used to cook meat is added to oats (dont forget this part)
Cook all for 1/2 hour or so , the oats should have a bit of crunch to them ( el dente )cook to much you get oat meal. We start cooking the oats in roaster about 20 min before meat is don.
Spoon should stand in sausage ( not to wet nor dry)
Put in tins cover , freezes well
Three brothers make 3 batches in fall early winter gone by June.
Good alone, with syrup, pancakes, toast
Too cook spoon into pan fry to golden to slightly crispy
My family recipe calls for pork skin with about 1/4 inch of fat attached. Boil in enough water to cover till done. I also add 1 pork shoulder roast cooked till very tender. Reserve cooking liquid. Add raw rice to the cooking liquid(1cup raw rice for every 2 cups liquid.) Add adequate salt to the pot.
Grind the meat and cooked pork skin and add to the pot of cooked rice. (Or mix all in a large roasting pan.) Season with salt black pepper and plenty of thyme.
