Time 14h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 beef tongues
4 pig's ears
2 pig's feet
4 onions, chopped
2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
15 whole black peppercorns
3 tablespoons dried sage
15 whole cloves
4 bay leaves
2 tablespoons pickling spice
½ teaspoon garlic powder
3 cups distilled white vinegar
2 pimentos, julienned
6 pepperoncini peppers, chopped
4 tablespoons dill pickle relish
5 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Place tongues, pig's ears, pig's feet, and onions in a large stock pot; add water to cover. Season with salt, pepper, whole peppercorns, sage, cloves, bay leaves, pickling spice, garlic powder and vinegar. Bring to a boil, and cook until meat is cooked, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • Remove meat; set aside to cool. Strain broth, and measure 8 cups into another pot. Return broth to stove, and let simmer.
  • Peel skin from ears, leaving the ear as intact as possible. Place the ears aside. Remove gristle and fat from pig's feet, and combine with ear trimmings. Cut off large portion of tongue and set aside. Trim loose meat from remainder of tongue, and combine with other trimmings. Put trimmings through a coarse meat grinder, then stir into broth; continue to simmer.
  • Slice tongues into thin strips, and place lengthwise into 2 glass loaf pans, 9x5x3 inches. Slice ears into thin strips, then cut the strips into 1/2 inch pieces. Arrange the ear pieces among the tongue strips. Divide the pimiento and pepperoncini between the two molds. Sprinkle with pickle relish.
  • Dissolve gelatin in 1 cup water. Stir into the simmering broth. Carefully ladle enough broth into each mold to completely cover the meat. Prod with a fork to uniformly distribute. Let stand 15 minutes, then cover with remaining broth. Allow to cool at room temperature, until they begin to jell, 2 to 3 hours. Refrigerate for 8 to 10 hours.
  • When cool, run a thin knife around the sides of the mold to release the souse. Remove any fat that has accumulated on the surface.

RODNEY SCOTT'S SECRET EASTERN CAROLINA BARBECUE SAUCE



Rodney Scott's Secret Eastern Carolina Barbecue Sauce image

I'm showing you exactly what goes into this world-famous BBQ sauce. Well, not exactly exact, since no real pitmaster would ever reveal their ingredients. But based on what Rodney Scott's said about this sauce in interviews, videos, and tv shows, I think this is really, really close. Sauce is safe unrefrigerated but will last longer if kept in the fridge, for up to two months.

  • Simmer the souse: Simmer the souse over low heat for at least 2 hours, or until the meat is tender. The longer you simmer the souse, the more flavorful it will be.
