My grandparents(German) in North Dakota made what they called breakfast meat. I believe it was made from headmeat from the hogs they slaughtered for the year. I believe it was seasoned with salt, pepper and sage or perhaps marjoram. The old folks really liked it but the kids turned up their noses. Is was not stuffed into casings and had a loose texture. It was often eaten with maple syrup.
My mother would like for me to try making this, but her family did not write the recipe down.

Anyone have a recipe for this?

Sounds like scrapple to me.

It sounds like it might also be Goetta.  (I think that is how it's spelled :) )

There are many "goetta" recipes on google, but this seems to be the most like what my mother made.(German immigrant)

what can't be smoked can't be eaten
