I guess I could call it dressed up leftovers. lol
I layered sliced potatoes, onions and the corned pork in the skillet....
seasoned with salt and ground black pepper...
made a basic white sauce by cooking scallions and garlic in butter until tender...
then added flour, letting that cook for a minute or two, then added milk and seasoning with coarse salt and cracked black pepper...
poured the creamy garlic sauce over the potatoes and pork, then added enough milk to make the level come half way up the tatoes.
I made a batch of bear lard biscuits ...
I started the skillet first in the Hasty Bake charcoal smoker with a bit of hickory, let them cook for about 30 minutes before adding the biscuits.
The whole cook took maybe 1 hour.
The scalloped tatoes were hot and bubbly... and fork tender.
I sprinkled them with a small amount of provolone...
It was a comforting meal. The hickory smoke adds a nice flavor to the tatoes and the biscuits were sooooo good.
It's funny how some meals remind me of my mom. I think this is a dish she would have loved. :)

That looks so good. We've got to come up with something better than dressed up leftovers. Potato and corned pork bake w/ Bear biscuits cooked Cowgirl style. It's a little wordy,,,,how about...Shut your mouth good!
Normally I don't like scalloped potatoes, but your pictures make me want to try it again. :o)
That is a fine looking dish Jeanie. There is something about it that reminds me of my mom too. I guess I can remember when she made scalloped potatoes quite often herself. It's been awhile since I had any of that though.
An amazing dish.
Comfort food indeed and looks to be very hearty!
lol Mrs JP! Thanks for the laugh! Hope you have a great weekend. :)
:) Linda thanks!! Hope you give them a try sometime.
Hope you have a great weekend too!
Mark Thanks! It was sort of a comforting meal. I guess it's a good way to feed a family when there's not much meat to go around too.
Must be why our Mom's made it so ofteh. :)
Hope you have a great weekend. I'm sure you will be busy with your place. It's looking so nice!

I believe I'd just call it awesome and move on. Sure hope you're dodging the tornados.

Larry thanks! It's good to be home. :)
David it's nice to see you! Thanks :)
Reminds me of something my mom made... and haven't thought of in a long time. Scalloped potatoes with ham, but she put sliced hard boiled eggs in hers. I loved that stuff..
Mvoss, glad it brought back memories for you! :)
I like the sound of your hard boiled egg idea, thanks!
Also, thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it. :)
