Sounds good! I got these from Scott with my half pig. He took me to the barn and showed me 3 to choose from, and asked which I wanted. One big black and white one walked up and batted her (his?) long eyelashes at me!
When I was a kid, we ate them a couple times a year, but always with boiled potatoes and sauer kraut -
I was nearly 30 before I ate potatoes again and I still hate sauer kraut.
OK so I could do the spuds. Although I normally do whipped tators n gravy. BUT rotten cabbage
that just ruined the whole thing. You do ya gotta have apple sauce with chops right. Yes it is a crime to eat pork chops with no apple sauce.
I ate the applesauce, it was the only decent part of the meal. Mom used to make me chew the meat until it was white before I could spit it out (Beef or pork). She'd pan-fry it in its own grease with some onions and mushrooms, then mash the potatoes in slightly with the rotten cabbage, throw a pork-chop up on top of the pile, then pour the pan grease and onions ans mushrooms on top. I used to cry at the dinner table for an hour or more before mom would take the plate away, stick it on top of the fridge and serve it to me again at breakfast. We were not allowed to turn down any food. Abou thet the only worse foods are limburger cheese, and a creamy beef stewy dish mom made with capers in it. Capers? I think I would rather eat a bar of soap! Caraway seeds are nasty too.
