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.

My aunt made the hominy in the same kettle we used to cook off the lard when killing hogs. She used lye/wood ashes or some such and when finished she put it up in jars. Was a good side dish but the canned stuff..not so much. Big difference in the two. But, let me say that I didn't enjoy hominy enough to go off and try to make some. Just one of those things thats gone forever I guess.

Cilantro by taste (my wife doesn't like it and I love it). Oregano is mentioned in the second line from the bottom.

My wifes family is from Taos.
Her aunt makes the best Pozole I have ever had. She uses red chile, though I also enjoy the green.

Texoma Caviar
2 cans (14oz) blackeye peas rinsed, drained 1 can white hominy drained 2 med tomatoes chopped 4 green onions chopped 2 cloves of garlic minced 1 medium sweet green pepper chopped 1 jalapeno pepper chopped 1 1/2 cups of chopped onion 1 1/2 cups chopped fresh parsley 1 8oz bottle of Italian salad dressing (we use the Good Seasons packet and mix it up with vinegar and oil)
Combine all ingredients and mix well Pour salad dressing over mixture, refrigerate at least 2 hours (overnite is better), drain and serve with tortilla chips or as a side dish. Great as a side with ribs.
+1 on pozole

Hominy uses/recipes? Quite a few, actually.
