All right, this is what I was waiting for!! I always thought we have a monopoly on the best scrapple here in Southeast PA, but I can tell from your ingredients and recipe you have the real deal there.Especially with putting the heads in yet, makes it even more authentic! It looks amazing, I could almost taste it just from watching. And I might invest in one of those mixer attachments, looks a lot easier than hand stirring. Happy eating!
I'm in southern PA, near Gettysburg and we have been makin our own for yrs too . And of course hand stirring it lol. Definitely gettin a mixer for the drill myself !
I'm Dutch 😁😁😁. My grandparents made it every year. I will do it end of this year when I have my first slaughter. 👍Enjoy it, nothing better than your own produced food.
My TN family did live near Muddy Pond, oh how I loved shopping there. Just love that area. Scrapple definitely looks like something I’d eat. My Dad is a retired drywall finisher so I know well the tool you were using 🙃
Thank you so much for the video and you are correct we waste a lot of deer meat on the bones definitely gonna make some scrapple in the future thanks again great video
It reminds me of liver mush without the liver and pork shoulder. I made liver mush from deer liver and ground deer once, it was very good and made just like scrapple
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures Ok I was wondering if you added liver. Can't beat food like this. I'm afraid one of these days that people that only rely on grocery stores will have a difficult time surviving. I hope I'm wrong, but I have a feeling that something is going to happen one day that will make hunting, fishing, gardening, and home steading a necessity to survive. On a positive note, I got the sausage seasoning! Thanks again for the drawing 😊
You could feed quite a crew with that much scrapple! But then you have quite a crew with your family. Not to mention Frank, LOL. Thanks for sharing Brother! Best wishes to you all.
We've been experimenting with making venison scrapple for years. Now this is coming from never making scrapple before, but always enjoying eating it. The last time we made it, we used our own recipe that we've been tweaking, but we incorporated your amounts of flour, buckwheat, and corn meal as well as water. WOW, perfect mixture. Next time we make some, I need to adjust my seasonings some, but very happy. We do not raise hogs, but we do quite a bit of hunting, so we always save the liver and tongues to add to our venison mixture. For our pork bones, skin, and meat, we use pork shoulders from the grocery store until I can find a better avenue. I was wondering how many times do you run everything through the grinder? I think we've been running through twice with a fine plate, but it may make it too much like pudding. Thanks for the great videos!
Hey brother are you in Tennessee! I know a Justin Miller in the lobelville area! We grind it once. I used a course plate this time and it is just fine! I love tweaking the recipe and seeing what works! I really enjoy using different types of meat just to see what happens 😂😂😂
Very interesting Mike. I've watched you make this a couple times and was wondering. How long will scrapple keep and under what storage conditions? Other preservation methods? Keep the great stuff coming and hug old Frank.
It needs to be frozen for long storage. It’ll keep in a refrigerator for a couple weeks I think…… but it never lasts that long in my fridge! Too many hungry boys!!😀
I was thinking if you put paprika in it .. the colour might look more tasty 🤣 Have you tried making feet and hocks turns out like scrapple but you don’t grind the meat . After the gelatin hardens it’s like cake . Put a little salt pepper and vinegar on it omg it’s good
I ALWAYS WATCH YOUR SCRAPPLE VIDEOS TOTALLY AMAZED ME THE FIRST TIME I EVER SAW YOU MAKE IT AS I’D NEVER HEARD OF IT AND JUST COULDN’T BELIEVE WHAT GOES INTO IT AND HOW MUCH LOVE HAS TO GO INTO MAKING THAT GIGANTIC SIZED BATCH! I MUST SAY THAT WAS THE MOTHERLOAD OF PEPPER LOL 😂 JUST TO MY TASTE 👍BY THE WAY YOUR LAND LOOKS BEAUTIFUL WITH ALL THAT SNOW
Looks really good ! I think you could make a dog turd look good lol .With the leftover bones you could make bone char out of them real easy by putting the bones in a tin can with a hole it and put it in your wood stove as your cooking or heating the house . I been using a popcorn and cookie tins to make char in . It's really awesome for your soil . You could be making all kinds of char in your wood stove . I hope you guys have a great weekend !
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures When the gases in the tin start burning off it heats your stove even more . You can use a roasting pan with a lid as well to make it .
I hope i am not offending with this question, but have you ever tried making scrapple with goat instead of deer meat? I am fresh out of deer mest, but am itching to try this recipe.
I have used just about every meat on earth in scrapple L O L it all turns out great! Turtle gave it a little bit of a funny taste, but it was still good😂😂😂
I live in nc and we eat livermush that is made almost the same way as scrapple and cooked the same in a cast iron pan to eat it Mike have you ever tried it? And like anything else some brands are better than others. If it is the right brand I really like it! I have also made it before homemade! It is is a lot of work to make also like scrapple.
Interesting. I’ve heard of it but never seen it made . Utilizing everything from the carcass. Can it be stored without refrigeration ? Thanks for sharing this. Have a great day
Talk about making the most of protein resources; meat eaters are the best and the most self sufficient of people. The frontiers of this country were opened up by forest hunters.
Hey, aren't you worried the bones splinter when dogs eat them? Beef and Pork bones do. My son worked for a vet for yrs, and he took part in bone removals. Cauterize punctures and deaths from them.
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures Ask your personal veterinarian. Though we lived in a Subrural area myself in Utah, the area's around us were ranchers and a mountainy area/ski resort. So we had deer and all but I never asked doc about their bones. However I do know that its best to give our pets the uncooked bones to prevent them from getting splinters and such. This includes chicken and other birds. Soo... when your cooking a lot of bones, save a cpl before cooking them but removing the meat you want but just for the dogs and actually cats too.. Remember, they have a history of catching birds ingrained in them. My mini cocker, 12 lb dog would literally catch birds in flight. His timing was awesome.. i never understood how he did it . Then suddenly a month after his last catch he went blind. He had glaucoma. If your dogs ever get diagnosed that, stop all veterinarian medicines, request immediate referral to an alternative veterinarian... We started with meds, which are human glaucoma meds that did nothing and not cheap. By the time doc suggested the other, knowing i personally went to his bestfriend as my chiropractor... lol.. yeah seriously . Small town in Utah.. I had to drive to Vegas, almost 3 hrs. With everything she had me give him... within about 10 days, he didnt seem in as much pain... and by 4 months his huge eyes shrank to normal. She felt if i had started with her, he could have been able to still see even a little. Because they swoll so big, the inner lenses fell in his eyes. If you look in the eye with the optical viewer like the optometrist does, it looked like a piece of glass in his eye bottom. Like a telescope has several lenses, if 1 dropped out, you can't see through it. Most everything she had me do was store bought but i had to go to an Asian grocery for the specialty tea and dried flowers. Which i heated in bulk then put the flowers in it during cooking then refrigerate it all.. you take the flowers out with tea absorbed in it , rehydrated.. and put on his eyes. Plus syringe the tea down his throat... then he received custom capsules she put stuff his body needed plus CBD... at that time was still illegal in Utah. I believe the combo of all shrunk his eyes. By the 5th month, i weeded him off the meds because it was stable over a month by then and he never had an issue again. But because of that, our lives changed.. making sure walkways were set uo better for him... he learned to lean on my leg walking outside, etc.. eventually he just walked next to me. His other senses improved, like hearing and smell. Btw, do you find venison a dry meat?
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures Chrysanthemum was the tea and flowers.. Great for humans. Inflammation, circulation etc.. too... Also make a mean farmer type punch with it. Mom use to make the punch with lemons and or oranges.. and usind rose as an essence like vanilla. We lived in a more desert type area of farming and ranching growing up, about 1.5 hrs from Vegas, Pahrump NV. Its less farming now.. more senior retirees. Lol. We had goats and chickens, tons of dogs and cats.. well we had a litter then ppl dropped of animals in the desert to die. Sad. While growing up there, i use to ride my bike past a ranch with beautiful horses. It always seemed like 1 was trying to get my attention.. so i eventually did and well... i think i should have gone into vet meds then alt vet. Also my chiropractor was Mitt Romney's cousin... my compound pharmacist was the Utah Rep senator that finally got various med mj approved in utah. And the ranch i helped with as a kid, was our elected Sheriff of nye county NV. Lol. Just a coincidence is all...
@@robzombieshot Oh my that was extremely traumatizing! Bless you for taking care of him!!! Deer meat is pure lean meat. It can be amazing if it is properly prepared……. But if you treat it like pork, it’ll treat you like jerky😂😂😂
