HOG STOMACH RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place the potatoes into a large pan with enough lightly salted water to cover them. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Wash the pork stomach thoroughly in cold water. Alternate stuffing the pork stomach with potatoes, sausage, and cabbage, seasoning with a little salt and pepper, until the stomach is full. Try to make even layers, imagining how it will look when it is done and you slice it. Fold closed, and place in a shallow roasting pan. If you have any leftover stuffing ingredients, just place them in the pan around the outside.
• Roast uncovered for 40 to 50 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sausage is cooked through and the stomach is browned and crispy. When done, slice into 2 inch slices and serve piping hot. You can make gravy out of the drippings if desired, but it is good by itself as a whole meal.

Steps:

• If not already done, remove inner lining from stomach and discard. (I buy my stomachs ready-to-use from the butcher or meat counter.).
• Rinse stomach well and place in bowl.
• Cover with 1 quart of water and 2 teaspoons salt.
• Let soak for 2 hours.
• Mix all remaining ingredients well.
• Drain and rinse stomach well.
• Fill stomach with stuffing.
• Sew openings and holes securely with cotton thread.
• Place stomach in roasting pan with water to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Bake at 350F for approximately 3 hours adding water as necessary to keep the bottom of the pan covered.
• Slice and serve with gravy made from pan drippings.
