Homemade Pork roll? (Taylor Ham)
-
I’ve heard of this “pork roll.” And heard there it’s a debate of it being Pork roll or Taylor Ham. I will admit that I heard of it from the tv show “Jersey Shore.” Lol

@CKleist Oh it’s a battle field here in NJ over which is the real pork roll! North Jersey tends to root for Taylor Ham. South Jersey tends to lean toward Case’s pork roll. They are both really good, but I am a Taylor Ham fan. We did a side by side blind taste test with a bunch of friends last summer and it was 50/50.

Steve Risse I gotta go online and see if I can order some for delivery to Chicago so I can try it! Sounds like the ketchup/no ketchup on hotdogs debates here. Btw…NO ketchup is the correct way. Lol

Steve Risse Yes, that’s right! Chicago has great food. My ex husband used to embarrass me so much when he’d ask for ketchup. Now back to my online shopping for pork roll. Lol I need to try it! Lol

DougSmokes Yes I am, I live in a town called Beachwood which is about 2 blocks from the beach and 15 mins from the Pine Barrens
BobbyMac My wife hails from Riverside and has family all up and down the coast. I’m sending her there in July with my youngest for 2 weeks as a birthday present. (to me ?!?) She’s really excited.

@DougSmoke nice! Down near where I grew up. I was further south by Cherry Hill. Have her bring back some frozen logs of both kinds for your breakfast sammies! You can’t go wrong! Kaiser roll, eggs,…broken yolks, PR, am cheese, SPK
-
SPK is salt, pepper, ketchup. Sorry CKleist…this is a great spot for ketchup! Just the right amount…too much and it’s just too much…takes a few times to find the perfect balance…

@CKleist This where I get mine. Comes frozen in 2-3 days to Colorado, so probably faster to you. Packaged well and reasonable $$.
link textDougSmokes Thanks Man! I will check it out. Now, do I get the pre-sliced or the whole? I mean obviously the whole would be better, right? I really want to try it. LOL. My hubby is gonna kill me…but at least it’s not shoes I am ordering this time!

@CKleist get the log if you have a slicer, then you can control how you like it. I like my slices think so I cut it myself lol
-
@CKleist I’d go with the 3 lb log. It freezes well, so you can cut it into 1 or 1/2 lb chunks (don’t peel the cloth casing) , vac seal and freeze. In the fridge it lasts like a pack of bacon before it goes bad. It is mainly a blend of bacon and pork butt with some spices. So if you can get through a pound of bacon before it goes bad, same idea here. Let us know what you think after you try it! Do you make sausages? It is not hard to make if you find that you like it…(which you will!)

craigrice another great resource is meatsandsausages.com. Also, Google “wedlinydomowe” to find an awesome source of information from some seriously dedicated sausage makers! It is a complimentary forum for the meatsandsausages website. It’s a Polish website that is related to Stanley and Adam Marianski. The site has an English side with contributing members throughout the world. Between these sites and Meatgistics, you will have a meat encyclopedia!

Hi Guys,
So I am getting ready to do my first pork roll. I have been looking for LPH (Starter Culture) and just read that I can use ECA instead. Any comments on that?
Second, the recipe calls for dextrose, can I substitute carrot fiber? If so any changes it only calls for 3 TBLS, But sometimes that small amount (of ?) on a 10 pound loaf can ruin a recipe.
Lastly, Can I substitute sure cure for Cure # 1? From what I’ve read I can. I also have some white cure from Mountain meat mixes, They always give you tripe what you really need…
TIA, appreciate the help.
