Homemade Spam using Ground Pork
Servings: 1 Loaf
Equipment
- 1 Food Processor
- 1 Small Bread Pan
- 1 Large Pan that can fit the small bread pan in it
Ingredients
- 3 lbs Ground Pork
- 1/2 tsp Prague Powder #1
- 1 1/2 Tbl Sugar & Potato Starch
- 1/2 Tbl Kosher Salt
- 1/2 C Cold Water
- optional Pinch of Nutmeg or other Seasonings
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients and puree in a processor until it is pink slime.
- Depending on the size of your processor, you may have to do this in half batches. Or mix in a dough mixer for about 20 minutes.
- Pack into a small bread pan really well. Doing this in portions will get you better results.
- Cover the bread pan with tin foil and place the bread pan in a large pan filled with water so that the water comes up 1/2 - 3/4 of the way up the bread pan with the spam in it.
- Place into preheated oven at 250 F for 3 - 4 hours. Or internal temp is 155 F
- Remove from the oven and place something on top that can put some weight on the meat, like a brick. Let rest 1 or more hours.
