Lost German Recipe

We are not sure on the spelling of the recipe name.
This is a recipe that my grandmother made. The recipe died with her. My mother is now aging and wants to eat this dish one last time.
This is what my mother remembers. Many meats were ground and cooked individually on the stove. After they were cooked, they were mixed together in a pot of thickening cornmeal and cooked until very thick.
The mixture was put into breadpans and lard was poured on top to preserve it. It was then refrigerated. It was later sliced and fried.
It was considered a poor man's dish and the meats used were dependent on what was available, but these are some of them we remember.
Beef heart, pork sausage, chicken gizzards, ground beef.
We appreciate your assistance in making Mom's wish come true. THANK YOU!
