Goetta
Goetta was a way to have meat go further as it is a mixture of meat and oats. It is popular in Metro Cincinnati. Traditional it is made with ground pork and beef but it translates perfectly to large game meat and even bear. You traditional fry it as a breakfast sauage and serve with an egg. It is so tasty you will not need Jimmy Dean again!!
