Mama's Scrapple

2 cups cooked meat, ground
1 quart water
1-1/2 cups corn meal
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sage

Directions:
Combine ground cooked meat and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook together for five minutes. Slowly add cornmeal, salt, and sage, stirring constantly, and cook until thick. Pour into a loaf pan to cool. Store in refrigerator.

To use the scrapple, slice about 1/2 inch thick and fry in bacon grease. Brown both sides. Serve hot.

Notes:
My mother, Doris Hill, collected this recipe and handwrote it on a card for her files. I don't remember eating scrapple when I was a kid. This recipe sounds like something she and my dad would have remembered eating as children. I think the meat in scrapple was usually pork.
