The Meat
- 2 lbs pork (the inexpensive cut... I forget the name)
- 2 lbs beef (the inexpensive cut... I forget the name)
- 1-2 sticks of margarine
- a lot of allspice
Take 2 pounds each of the cheapest piece of pork and beef, I forget the names and cube them. Throw in a stick of margarine in the pot. Add ground allspice... "a real lot"... like 3/4 of a tiny thing of Mcormicks... and add more to your desire. Cook on medium for like 40 minutes to cook them through.
Put it all in the meat grinder.
It freezes well so if you're making it over time, freeze it in small batches.

take 3 eggs, put them right into the ground meat.
"and then a hell of a lot of parmesian cheese" maybe preground locatelli romano... maybe 3/4 lbs
put in fridge
