Take a large pot, fill with water and add 8 to 10lbs of Pork Neck Bones, boil for approx 3 hours. When cooled, take out the neckbones and pick all the meat off, leaving the juices in the pot
Bring liquid back up to boil, drop meat back in, add 3 tablespoons of sage., or a little more if desired) & 2 chopped medium onions., also salt and pepper.
Stirring the pot is very important with a large handle spoon.
Start adding in corn meal slowly (you will be using 3 boxes of cornmeal), try not to get any lumps, keep stirring as it will start thickening. (Take turns stirring as it will wear you out)
After stirring for approx 20 minutes or so, have at least 6 casserole dishes, greased and ready to go. When thick enough, one person holds pot and the other dishes it out into the casserole dishes. Butter the top of each one and let cool. Put in frig afterwards.

Fry up in a little oil the next day, when frying make sure before flipping over, its cooked very well on one side. Add a little butter when on the plate and some salt.

Will make your tongue slap your brains out!

As the subject line stated, it's GOT to be eaten with apple butter!

Being from Philly scrapple was always on the breakfast menu. I flour both sides before cooking (keeps it together). Served with eggs and ketsup of course although my husband loves syrup with his scrapple! Gotta be HABERSETT. Never knew what was in it, never wanted to know. But it is right up there with Deitz and Watson all beef hotdogs and Taylor Pork Roll. I think I will get some breakfast now. You guys have a splendid day!

Tasted my first Cincinnatti Goetta last week! It was... um, better than a sharp stick in the eye...!
Hubby George thought of you while we were there...'Hey, isn't this where Gracie Girl is from?"
