Fried Scrabble; delectable, detestable?

1. If you mean Scrapple, it's delectable

If it's cooked right! Sliced no more than 3/8" thick and fried until golden. Serve with ketchup or grape jelly!

If you mean Scrabble, well I think those little wooden pieces would be pretty tasteless and leave splinters in your gums.

3. I believe my question was perfectly clear

so,

baked scrabble?

2. Fried Scrabble?

Sounds a bit sketchy to me. How in the world would you keep all those tiles with the letters from melting into plastic goo?

9. wooden tiles

I only cook with the best ingredients

13. Of course!

How totally stupid of me.

4. The hardest tiles to fry evenly are the 0's.................

I think you meant scrapple, and I love it! Habbersett if you can find it! I have to order it, shipped, by the case - a case every couple of years is worth the freezer space AND the price!!

When I first did this, we had taken a small vacation to see my mom in Florida. You could buy it at the Publix there, and we froze and brought home 10 pounds........... claimed it was books!!! (Pre 9/11 so no big deal.)

Have a terrific weekend, ashling, and fry some up for me, okay? Now, if I could just get decent grits...............

Oh, the kitties like it, too!

10. Actually, I meant Scrabble

this is a copycat of another thread about "scrapple"

5. I haven't eaten scrapple in nearly 50 years

I was living in Salisbury, MD. There was a billboard advertising a scrapple brand that I remember as Adam's. Either my memory is faulty or that brand has gone the way of so many into the dust bins of history. My mother would slice it very thin and fry it to a golden brown on both sides, yum!

Some people fry grits as well. Pour cooked grits into a greased loaf pan and chill in the fridge overnight. Turn out the loaf of grits, slice and fry like scrapple. Never had it but I do like grits. Add a little crumbled cooked sausage patties to the grits before chilling and I guess that could be southern scrapple. Sounds good to me but just a dream. Neither scrapple or ersatz scrapple will find itself frying in my Connecticut Yankee wife's kitchen.

6. The last time I tried fried Scrabble...

11. You can't fry the Qs by themselves

You must include a U sunny side up
