Steps:
- Pulse the boneless fatty pork shoulder and fresh pork fat together in 2 batches in a food processor until finely ground.
- (NOTE: You could use coarse ground pork instead.)
- Be careful not to grind to a smooth paste. Transfer to a 2 - 2 1/2 quart heavy saucepan.
- Add the stock, onion finely chopped,garlic, bay leave(s), salt, black pepper, and allspice.
- Bring to a boil, stirring to break up clumps.
- Reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender, and liquid is still visible below surface of meat, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours. Discard bay leaf from pot. Spoon into 5 8 oz ramekins with a slotted spoon.
- Spoon remaining liquid over pork.
- Place a small round of wax paper on top of each ramekin, and chill until firm.
- You could use a loaf pan for serving.
- You could omit the allspice all together if you wish. It tastes good without too.

Steps:
- Put the ground pork, minced onion and garlic,dry mustard, allspice, salt and pepper in a medium size pot and begin to cook on med. high heatuntil meat looses some of its pinkness -- add the can of soup and water and cook till the mixture begins to bubble. Lower heat and let simmer 1/2 hr, stirring often so it doesn't stick.
- When the mixture has cooked and cooled, put into food processor and pulse -- careful not to make it too fine -- you want it a wee bit chunky but spreadable.
- You can put it into small plastic containers.or as mom does -- freeze in ice cube trays -- then pop out just one at a time.
- It's a good idea to seal with bacon fat -- unhealthy but it does seem to give it good flavor and keep it moist.

Steps:
- If your meat is too lean, cut up 1/4-1/3 pound Salt Pork, and render into lardons. Remove the salt pork bits, then continue the recipe, omitting the salt. Do not use bacon for the extra fat, bacon is smoked. You can use Lard, 1-2 T, in a pinch.
- Put all ingredients into a large sauce pot, just covering by an inch with the water.
- Mix together.
- Simmer on low, stirring frequently for 3-4 hours.
- Add water as needed to keep moist and from sticking.
- After the allotted cooking time you should have simmered the mixture down till there is about an inch of combined fat and water.
- Taste to check the seasonings. If your spices are old, you may need to re-spice the mixture
- (with the same amounts), then cook out the raw taste a bit.
- Transfer to a bowl to cool, stirring to keep fat suspended in meat.
- Serve warm on toast, or cold for sandwiches.
- For Tourtiere mix the same mixture with 3 0r 4 mashed (dry) potatoes,
- allowing them to suck up the moisture.
- Allow to cool, and ladle into pre-pared pie crusts.
- Egg wash and bake to specifications.
