What began as a hearty winter food is now sold year-round. It pops up in some unlikely places.
At Catch-a-Fire Pizza inside Mad Tree Brewing in the Oakley neighborhood, goetta and a cracked egg top the Goetta, Stand Up pie.
"Most of our pizzas are named after Bob Marley songs," say Jeff and Melissa Ledford, the owners.
Roasted garlic and olive oil, caramelized onions, peppadew peppers and cheeses complete the pizza. Goetta is browned a little before going on the pie, and browns more while baking.
Even Camp Washington Chili, which goes through 60 gallons of chili a day, began sneaking in goetta this year. But, you have to know to ask for the "513 Way," a customer's creation named after the local area code.
Owner Maria Papakirk says the 53 Way begins with a base of grilled goetta instead of spaghetti. Then it's standard five-way chili: red beans, meaty chili sauce, diced onions and shredded cheddar. The goetta comes from Queen City Sausage, best known for making bratwurst and mettwurst.
