Free Haggis

Big-Target,

It sounds to me like the Scottish version of scrapple. You being from Cherry Hill should be well versed in scrapple. Philadelphia is the only place in the world that holds a scrapplefest.

Scrapple is made from the... scraps, to put it nicely. Basically when they butcher a hog they sweep up whatever falls off and press it into blocks. It is one of those things you just don't ask about and don't care for unless you grew up not knowing what it was. Mac

I've made haggis properly, and it's not scraps, it's good food. Yes, it's organ meats, but so are the vast majority of sausages (mechanically rcovered somethings). The only truly gross bit is boiling the lights to get the gunk out then it just smells savoury.
Now a singed sheeps heid...... :shock: Actually, I don't think that'd be allowed now, BSE, etc. My grandpa loved the brains and he lived to be 97!

Toddy,

Reading the recipes haggis does sound more wholesome than scrapple. Boiled in a stomach... And to think I've been just throwing them away! Mac
