Chitterlings And Hog Maw

 

Chitterling & Hog Maw #1

Ingredients

10 pounds of chitterlings
1 pound of hog maws, cut up
1 large yellow onion, cut-up
1 large green pepper, cut up
1 Bay Leaf
1 large white potato, peeled
2 Pods Red Pepper
1 tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon of pepper
1/2 cup of vinegar
2 Cloves Garlic, sliced

Directions

Thaw your Chitterlings overnight if frozen. The folowing day clean your chitterlings. This can be done by washing  them under running water in your sink, remove and discard fat and any debris from each chitterling section. put the clean chiterlings in a pot of cold water as you finish cleaning each section.

Pour the chitterlings back into a sink of cold water and reexamine them to make sure that they have been cleaned properly. Rinse in fresh water several times. Some cut their chiterlings up first.  I prefer to cut up after cooking. The Maw is to be cleaned in the same way.

 Place chitterlings and maws in large pot. Add garlic, onion, bay leaf, salt, vinegar, potato and red pepper. Bring pot to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer 4-5 hours or until chitterlings are tender. Stir occasionally. Remove and discard the bay leaf. Using a fork or spoon, mash the potato against the side of the pot. Stir to distribute the mashed potato. Serve hot.


Chitterlings & Hog Maw #2

1 1/2 teaspoons of peppercorns
1 1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 stalk of celery
1 medium whole onion
1 white potato, washed and peeled
10 pounds of chitterlings
3 pounds of hog maws

Thaw chitterlings in warm water (not hot). As soon as they are thawed enough to separate, begin cleaning. Remove all fat skin and foreign matter. Thoroughly rinse until chitterlings are completely cleaned. Repeat this process with the maws. Place cleaned chitterlings and maws in a large cooking container; boil for 45 minutes, then pour off this water. Cut up chitterlings and maws, cover with water, add celery, peppercorns, potato, and salt. Simmer for 4 to 6 hours. Remove and discard the celery, potato, and peppercorns.


Chitterling & Hog Maw #3

10 pounds of pork chitterlings
3 pounds of hog maw
1 whole onion, red
6 chicken bouillon cubes
3 tablespoons of dried red pepper, crushed
3 tablespoons of garlic salt

Unthaw chitterling and hog maws; remove all excess fat and waste. Wash very well. Let drain. Add water to cover. In large cooker, add onion, bouillon cubes and red pepper and garlic salt. Let ingredients come to a boil, then cut to low to simmer and cook until well done.
