Homemade Livermush Recipe (+How to Cook Livermush)
Report
Southern-style Livermush is a surprisingly delicious addition to a hearty breakfast or brunch. Especially popular in North Carolina, this pork-based meatloaf is similar to the sausage patty, but with a smoother texture and a slightly spicy, earthy flavor.

Ingredients
- 1 pork liver trimmed with membrane removed
- 2 1/2 lb pork shoulder
- 1 1/4 cups chopped sage or 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 3 tablespoons salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1 1/2 cups cornmeal fine
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
For Frying (Optional)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon butter unsalted recommended
Instructions
- Place the pork liver and pork shoulder on a work surface. Cut into ½-inch inch cubes using a butcher knife. Then place in a 8-10 quart pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook until tender, about 3 hours.
- Lift the cooked meat out of the pot using a slotted spoon, reserving the cooking liquid. Add the meat to a food processor along with the sage, salt and pepper. Pulse several times until the consistency reaches that a fine mince.
- Turn the minced meat back into the pot with the liquid and bring to a boil. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the cornmeal and flour, alternating ¼ cup at a time until it reaches a batter-like consistency. Remove from the heat and let it sit for 30 minutes. Then pour into a loaf pan and refrigerate for 4 hours to overnight to let it set.
- To make sautéed livermush, place a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and butter followed by a 1-inch slice of livermush. Fry for 1-2 minute per side or until golden.
