PICKLE MEAT (SPREAD FOR MAKING SANDWICHES) BY ROSE
This recipe came from my Mother-in-law (Carol Selvar) who introduced me to it way back in the 1970's. Her son, my hubby, absolutely loves it so when I have left over beef tongue this is what I make with it. The recipe that I posted on JAP last was the recipe for Beef Tongue Sandwiches. This recipe is for what you make out of the...

Steps:
- 1. Wash your hands. Since my grinder had not been used in YEARS, I decided to wash all the parts first. I like working with clean tools. LOL
- 2. After assembling the grinder and placing a "catch" bowl under the mouth of the grinder, place the tip of the tongue into the upper slot of the grinder and begin the grinding process. Rotate the "catch" bowl as needed. It may be necessary to cut the tongue into pieces before grinding. Each grinder is different.
- 3. Clean all the grinder parts of the beef that sticks to the grinder during the process and add to the "catch" bowl. Add the 1/2 cup of mayonnaise and the 3 Tablespoons of sweet pickle relish. Mix to combine.
- 4. Place in a serving bowl so everyone can make a sandwich out of the pickle meat.
- 5. This is my first sandwich made with this batch of pickle meat! YUMMY! You can adjust the mayonnaise and pickle relish on the sandwich itself to make it taste the way you want it. Enjoy!! 3/2/13
PICKLE MEAT
This recipe is due to a quest to make Donna's Red Beans and Rice in the Crockpot. She has been so helpful, but the bottom line is, pickle meat is not available up here in Nebraska! I did an internet search and found a lot of info and recipes. This is the recipe I came up with. I made her beans and rice and it was delicious....

Steps:
- 1. Place all ingredients except pork and ice into a nonreative pan and bring to a simmer. Simmer for a few minutes.
- 2. Turn off heat and add ice. Let mixture cool. The ice simply cools it faster. You can simply add another 2/3 cup of cold water.
- 3. Place pork into a plastic or glass container that will hold all ingredients. I used a large ziploc bag.
- 4. Pour cooled brine mixture over pork. If using a bag, squeeze out air and seal. If using another container, make sure pork in submerged in brine.
- 5. Refrigerate and stir or mix brine and pork or ziploc bag every day for three days. It can go for up to a week.
- 6. After a week, drain brine and rinse meat of spices. Use or put in a pan and freeze. Place in a bag for future use. I put the pieces of meat on a cookie sheet and froze them. I then put them in a freezer bag.
- 7. I used this in Donna's Red Beans and Rice and it was a very good flavor. I plan on trying it in baked beans and even fried rice. I diced it and browned in a little bacon fat. This is a whole new seasoning adventure!
- 8. If you think you would like different seasonings, my research found that this was OK. Just keep the sugar/salt/water/vinegar ratio the same. You can season any way you like! Love recipes like that!
