I make it pretty much the same was as Travis, with either butter or bacon grease. The only thing I add is coffee. My Mom would always cook it as 'flave described, but just before it was ready to serve, she'd turn up the flame and pour about a mug or so of that morning's left over coffee in the pan, and then reduce it down and serve. I still do it that way today. May seem strange but it's damn good.
