Haven't had any for quite a while and just got a hankering for some lately.I would prefer recipes without messican influence as I have several but more of a Southern style way of fixins.

Woody, you are asking for a recipe to actually make hominy, or to use hominy in a dish?

let me make some calls. My Mom, and several aunts, all fine Southern cooks, are still lucid, despite being in their ninties. I'll get some info for ya.

from an Aunt up in SW Virginia: Potatoes and Hominy:
1/4 cup bacon grease
1/3 cup chopped green onion
2 cups diced, boiled potatoes
a #2 can of hominy, drained (I believe this is around two cups)
seasonings
heat the bacon fat, and add in the green onions. Cook a few min, then add in the hominy and potatoes. Saute until the potatoes are a bit crisp. Season with salt and pepper.

from my Mom porkcops and hominy
cook several thick chops in an iron skillet, remove when browned and cooked through.
Add in a can of hominy, including the liquid. Stir the hominy into the pan drippings, and use the back of a big spoon to mash up the hominy, mixing it and the liquid with the pork drippings.
When well heated and mixed, spoon onto your plate, top with a pork chop. Mom suggested serving this with collards or mustard greens, and cornbread.

We used to have hominy as a side dish when I was growing up.
Mom would rotate hominy, green beans or canned corn with our meals.
Never had it any other way.
Great ideas! Thanks Sam!

some years back, I was researching menu items before opening a new restaurant. This one I did in conjunction with a yankee couple from Hull, Massachusetts. They wanted to do a New England/lobster place. We did well with the concept for many years, before getting old and tired, and selling it. One recipe that I looked at, but did not use, was this one, for hominy and bacon.
three cups canned hominy, drained
two tablespoons bacon fat
one onion, chopped course
one green pepper, chopped
two cups fresh, cooked tomatoes
tablespoon sugar, salt to taste
1/2 pound thick sliced bacon
put the hominy in a buttered baking dish.
in a skillet, melt the bacon fat. Add the onions and peppers, and cook until lightly browned. Add the tomatoes and seasonings, simmer for 5 min or so.
Pour this over the hominy. Top with the bacon slices, and bake at 325 until the bacon browns, and becomes crisp.

Best thing for hominy is to throw it in the garbage!
I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.

I had an aunt that made fresh hominy and it was so much better that the canned stuff. But I guess canned is the only option going now....isn't it?

Actually I'd throw them both in the garbage LOL. I love fishing for trout, but I turn them all back because I don't care to eat them.

Have you ever had chicken soup with hominy and meatballs. Chicken stock, chicken, little meatballs and hominy. It's good.
