Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire The perfect breakfast

Sad to say but I know the feeling.

Homeade biscuits, homeade sausage gravy and hash browns or fried taters....Add a couple of eggs, over easy with homeade salsa on top, and about a half a pig of bacon and you got some good stuff.....Or the cholesterol sandwich....two pieces homeade bread, toasted, with mayo, sausage patty, two eggs broken with cheddar cheese grated on top when frying them...add a slice of fresh tomato.....salt and pepper to taste.....

My favorite is when Mr. Burns tells Homer to leave and he says "Oh Boy! Half a day off!!!"

[/quote]I remember an editorial in the Montgomery Advertiser when I was a teen. In it a 90-something year old was being interviewed and was asked the secret to a long life. "Don't smoke, don't drink and don't chase wimmen", he replied. The editor remarked that was all well and good but consider this: what is it to life to have never known the luxury of an after dinner cigarette, the twilight glow of drunkeness or the bitter sweet memories of an old love affair then get run over by some idiot on the highway just shy of your 40th birthday? There's more to life than getting old......but now that I'm old it ain't so bad. [/quote]

It's probably been 15or 20 years ago, but our local newspaper also interveiwed a woman from Ft. Laramie WY on her 100th birthday. When they asked her how she managed to live to 100, she said "It's because I haven't died yet". Still sharp after all those years. LOL

Half a century ago, I worked awhile in a shoestring potato factory. The cut "strings" were first run through a water bath that removed quite a lot of starch. A weekly task was to get into the vats and shovel out the white starch mud. I believe that wash contributed to the crisp nature if the fried product.
I still prefer a crisp texture for hash browns, but rarely find it.

Have you ever tried a bacon sandwich? Take two pieces of buttered toast, spread jelly on them and then put in some crisp bacon. Delicious!

Oh yeah, that is good stuff Mickey, I use boysenberry jam in stead of jelly. Les

Les, Dorothy and I took our honeymoon on a BMW 900. Went to the Grand Canyon and up through Utah to Yellowstone. We were eating breakfast in Utah and I tried some boysenberry syrup on some pancakes. That stuff would give a hyena the dry heaves but, then, my grandfather loved orange marmalade so I guess there are many different tastes....... . Not everybody likes grits if you can believe such a thing.

country ham,grits,redeye gravy,eggs and rolaids..

Oldie:

Kentucky Breakfast:

� half-pound beef steak
� fifth of Jack Daniel's black label
� four-year-old male black-and-tan hound*




*(to eat the steak)

Makes you wonder about some of the stuff doctors tell you don't it. One thing about them, Daddy always says (and he's 85 and still goin' strong), they burry their mistakes.

By gosh that sounds pretty good. I believe I'll try that. I got to get some tomatoes set out. All these late freezes have played he// with gardening in the four state area where I live.

I do the bacon, egg, cheese tomato with mayo and hot sauce in a tortilla thing here and there too...And WPD385 showed me a pretty wicked scrambled egg cheese sausage tortilla wrap a while back....

That is some good eatin' too....Man, I 'm hungry now....

3 fried eggs
4 slices thick bacon
pan fried walleye filet
big mess of potatos o'brien
Tabasco
Coffee

Being a Minnesota boy, you must of had a bacon and fried onion sandwich....Bacon, onion fried in the grease, and bread...A favorite for fishing trips "Up north"...

The key to a bacon and onion sandwich is to squeeze lemon juice over the onions and let it soak in for a minute before frying said onions.

I'm a lousy enough fisherman that I've shore lunched quite a few bacon and onion sandwiches!

Yeah, that is how we make em too...even if you get fish for shore lunch you have to make the sandwich too...That's about the only time I have them, though....Maybe that's why they are so good...

can't let this post leave just yet
you fellars make a sandwish out of anything.
and houndgirl yes we all enjoy healthy food on occassion but this is the "perfect breakfast" and perfect and bran should not be used in the same sentence unless the sentence was "My colon is perfectly clean."
And also green is not a breakfast color.
I am having a delightful time reading our breakfast menu and I am thinking now of adding a few items to my perfect beakfast.
