What is goetta?

Oh Jarons, say it aint so my friend nicker:. A mix of sausage, and oats, very popular in the Greater Cincinnati.

See link:

Goes great with eggs, pancakes, by itself, on biscuits, etc…..let me count the ways! There is regular and spicy. My family enjoys both. I think the spicy is better. It is best cut into 3/4" wide circles out of the tube it comes in ( just like sausage patties are packaged ). Flatten a bit by hand.

Cook on both sides for approx. 4-6 mins based on heat in the skillet with a little canola oil. You almost want to burn either side a bit to keep it crispy.

Hope that helps and peaks your curiosity enough to try it. If you like sausage, grits, and oatmeal. You'll like goetta. If your not a grit or oats guy. Stick to regular sausage.
