Ground Pork Sandwiches

Submitted by Mary Leverington

"I did a recipe search for the lowly pork chop sandwich without success. I even did an Internet and a Google search without much information either. I was forced to come up one from memory and from odd bits of information I was able to glean from the countless web sites I poured over."

My husband and I loved this recipe ! I used panko breadcrumbs and they were very brown and crunchy. We ate the first 2 patties on hamburger buns and made a completely different meal from the other 2 patties the next day. I bought a jar of heinz pork gravy and served it over the patties with mashed potatoes and peas. Delicious ! Thank you .

I'm a native Indiana girl, and let me tell you, we love our pork fritters! These were excellent. I also used panko, like another reviewer, and these patties were crunchy and brown on the outside but juicy on the inside. I did fry for about 10 minutes, but didn't want them to be too brown. So I finished them up in the oven at 400 for about 5-10 more minutes. I plan to buy more ground pork and make these ahead to freeze. Thank you so much for posting. I never would have thought of this one on my own!

These were great! So looking forward to making them again! The one small thing I changed was used butter & olive oil instead of veggie oil. I also had the advantage of fresh ground pork butchered right off the farm, but I really enjoyed this recipe! Thanks!
