Ohio huddlers

I watched that show taste of america last night and they were talking about Goetta.

 

Since I'm from maryland i Have no idea what it taste like. Is it almost like scrapple?

 

FYI - Kentucky and Ohio have Goetta vending machines. Weird.

never heard of it

 

edit: no wonder. wikipedia says that it's a regional dish found in Cinci.

Goetta is a Cincy thing. The largest prducer Glier's Goetta sells about 99 percent of its goetta in Greater Cincinnati.

 

I've had scrapple, too (lived in Maryland a while). I hate 'em both, but they are pretty similar. I think scrapple tends to be pork byproducts, where goetta uses any meat-type thing and oats.

Mmmmm. Ground beef and pork mixed with pinhead oatmeal and onions. Fried in bacon grease and served with eggs. Definitely a Cincinnati delicacy.

Here's the recipe...

 

1 pound ground pork and 1 pound ground beef

8 cups water

2 1/2 cups pinhead oatmeal (we used steel cut)

1 large onion, sliced *

1 to 4 bay leaves, optional *

2 teaspoons salt

Pinch of pepper

 

 

In a large pot with a lid, boil the water, add salt, pepper and oatmeal. Cover and let cook for two hours, stirring often.

 

Add the meat, onion and bay leaves. Mix well. Cook for another hour, stirring often. Remove bay leaf.

 

Pour into bread pans (size doesn't matter).

 

Refrigerate overnight.

 

To serve: Slice the goetta and fry it until crispy or just until heated through. Goetta may be served with pancakes and eggs, on sandwiches or in place of meat at dinner
