Your worst nightmares come true. Watching the movie is probably enough to turn most of us off to the idea of sausage.
Killjoy.

I think ground pork could make good tacos.
Boy you got that right. Andy had me wondering if if I was awake or typing asleep at the keyboard again. It would be a Pork question to begin with. Last time I put my worthless 2 cents worth in I had to send out an S.0.S!..Holy Piglets Pooo Bear..Hey come on, much of this topic has been relegated to discussing either off topic or what actually is the topic, including a shrimp recipe.

Heh. I learned something today. Shrimp with lobster sauce starts off with ground pork for the lobster sauce. I knew lobster sauce had no lobster, but ground pork??? I had NO idea! Thanks, JPB!
I already knew that "lobster sauce" means sauce they make for lobsters, not from lobsters. Didn't know it was from pigs. Got me!Heh. I learned something today.

The OP was originally asking for bratwurst recipes--we seem to be slipping off topic <g>.
Actually the thread title ask for uses for pork but the original post suggests the OP wants a variety of brat recipes.
...so you're both wrong.
...or you're both right.
My head hurts.
I think the use for ground pork is endless. But I am wondering what happened to the rest of the pig? YOu did not ground the whole thing up?
Okay--my memory of about 75 lb for 1/2 was about right and the price sounds about the same as that which I paid 3-4 years ago (the last time I went in on a pig).Originally it was called something that had the words patty, recipe, and brat plus a few others in a different order.
got as many 1" thick chops as I could, as many 3/4" steaks as I could, as many 5lbs ham roasts, an the rest was 1/2 ground 1/2 ground sausage
roughly 160lbs of meat pig+processing was right around $300 not bad IMO

We always got a side of beef when I was growing up and Mom used to get 50/50 ground and stew meat. We only once got a 1/2 pig and I don't remember her using much ground pork - she always used something and ground it herself for her tourtieres.With my 1/2 pig, it seems to me I'd get 10-12 packs of 1 lb ground pork....I could be wrong. With 1/2 beef, I'd get around 50 packs of ground beef--averaging 1 lb to 1-1/4 lb. I always ordered stew meat however.
