NATIONAL SCRAPPLE DAY – November 9 (1)
Thu Nov 9th

National Scrapple Day

The first pork dish to be invented in the United States was recognized on National Scrapple Day, November 9th. For those not familiar with scrapple, it is traditionally a mush of pork scraps and trimmings mixed with cornmeal, wheat flour, and spices, such as sage, thyme, savory, and black pepper. It is also known as sage, thyme, savory, and black pepper. The mush is then turned into a semi-solid loaf, sliced and pan-fried.

Scrapple is also known by the Pennsylvania Dutch word pon haus, and the immediate ancestor of scrapple was the Low German dish panhas... Local settlers modified the dish to make use of locally available ingredients. Pannhaas, panhoss, ponhoss, or pannhas are still popular in Pennsylvania's areas.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, German colonists who settled near Philadelphia and Chester County, Pennsylvania, developed the first recipes for scrapple. Many people are strongly associated scrapple with rural areas around Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, eastern Virginia, and the Delmarva Peninsula, despite such rich history.

  • Both refrigerated and frozen cases, supermarkets provide scrapple throughout the region
  • Did you know that scrapple dishes include beef, chicken, or turkey?
  • Try deep-frying or broiling it for a different texture instead of pan-frying scrapple
  • Scrapple makes an excellent breakfast sidedish
  • Use apple butter, ketchup, jelly, maple syrup, honey, horseradish, or mustard to start your scrapple
