we were jokingly calling this "mock head" at my party. i think some people were afraid to eat based on appearance (we used a beautiful mold though). however, it tasted very good. decent recipe for not using a head. there was very little jello in this recipe based on amount of meat. one person said that maybe more jello would have made it more authentic. however, i thought it was fine

My mother made this when I was just a litlte kid after a Hog was butched.It is made from the meat in a hogs head as the name says. She made it in a loaf and we ate it as sandwichies or just with vinger on it.
