Thread: Breakfasts that kill

Bacon, eggs, pancakes, maple syrup, hot strong black coffee and OJ

When I can drag myself out of bed in the morning, my daily breakfast is bacon n eggs, sometims with toast..
Recently i've been lacking sleep... so I get sausage n eggs at the cafeteria at my office..
Weekends... I usually sleep rather than cook.

2 eggs with country ham and red eye gravy, cat head biscuits, apple butter. and grits. Hot coffee

Creamed eggs as made by my deceased grandfather of German descent. A perfect Sunday breakfast:

Crack a bunch of eggs in a hot greased or buttered skillet (cast iron preferably) and pour "half and half" or heavy cream over the eggs. Not so much that they're submerged, but enough to be able to ladle out the hot cream prior to serving.

Make a bunch of buttered toast, the crispier the better.

Poach the eggs in the cream until done (sunny side up preferably) salt and pepper to taste.

Put two pieces of the toast on a plate and ladle some of the hot cream over the toast, top each piece of toast with one egg and ladle more of the hot cream on top of each egg. The toast gets soggy here, that's the idea.

Serve immediately.

Comfort food like crazy.

I've never heard anyone else mention this type of dish. Googling creamed eggs only comes up with some recipes where the eggs are hard boiled. He grew up on a farm in Minnesota, so maybe it was just an invented farm breakfast dish.

I've nerver heard about it... but sure sounds good. I'll try it some time! But I'll have to play 3 games of badminton with my room mate after that... just to be on the safe side.

Eggs Benedict! I love this. Usually it comes on an English muffin, but the biscuits sound like something I could get along with just fine

And Joesixpack hit it with the steak and eggs. This is my favorite when all the materials are available.

BUT... the go-to breakfast for arterial cloggedness in my house is the once-over eggs and sliced fried kielbasa (Polish sausage) with toast and smashed fried potatoes (I say smashed because they look like somebody stepped on them when they go in the pan). The fat from the kielbasa INSIDE the tubing makes for a completely different (saltier) flavor than when you cook the whole sausage on the grill, for example.

Give it a shot.

I'm starving and just a cup of soup for lunch is not going to cut it after reading this whole thread.

Having been to the states a few times, I'm pretty sure I have never managed to finish a breakfast lol. All you can eat pancakes usually means 2 of the 3 on the plate, I'm just not built for American breakfasts lol.

I don't think I have a favorite breakfast
