Ode to Scrapple

[phattymatty]

i'm not too high on scrapple, and if i'm in the mood i just eat through the trash can outside.

saurkraut on the other hand is delicious.

its back to scrapple, your pain has been spared this time.   So where in Philly can I find scrapple made right?

Your own kitchen.  Buy scrapple and lard, and you can make it right yourself.

whatever fancy boy.  food always tastes better when someone else makes it for you.

there isnt a diner in philly (the city) that cant make it properly...at least id be surprised if there was

[SunMo]

there's one by my house that i trust...other than that, it's all me.

My wife once accidently bought beef scrapple. It smelled like hair and liver burning. We left the house for the whole day to stay away from the horrid stench.

i mix it with my homefries and eggs = heaven on a plate

Eggs over easy, with the yolks running into the edges of the scrapple. And if you're in the right place, also into your grits. Damn.

[SunMo]

i hate runny eggs, so that's not good for me.  scrambled or nothing.

[rant] Speaking of home fries (hash browns, actually) what part of the term hash 'BROWNS' don't servers at restaurants understand?

Potatoes that are served as "hash browns" are supposed to be cooked golden brown and preferably well-done.  They're not supposed to looked like f'n hunks of baked potatoes when they're served.  What's worse is when you actually ask them to be served well done only to have them come out nearly raw.  Just sickening.

It depends on the cook, I guess, but I see "home fries" as sliced potato and onion, fried up just until the potatoes are tender, and maybe as the onions just start to carmelize. That's different from "hash browns" which to me are more like shredded potatoes that are fried crispy. And that's different from a potato pancake (served with sour cream and applesauce).

The other thing I don't get about restaurants is when you order iced tea with lemon.  Why do they refuse (or even worse, forget) to give you another slice of lemon with a refill?   If you order iced tea with lemon initially, do they think for some reason that you won't want it again on a refill?

I blame poor training of the servers in these joints.  Being a professional server is a tough job, no doubt about it.  But for God's sake, show a little fricken pride in your performance, already. [/end rant]

Agreed. Maybe the profit margin on fresh lemon is pitifully low or something.

your grasp on breakfast side dishes is zen-like.  well done.
