All looks good and that would be an appetizer for me! :-)

I can chow down with the best of them!

Everything looks great but what I am really shocked at is all you guys are cooking with electric stove tops. What gives? Can't get gas where you are at? Electric is TERRIBLE
[Reply]

we don't even have gas to the neighborhood, everything's electric. I'm fine with it.

Every place I've lived had electric. The home I own now had a gas line to the fireplace, but that was the only thing in the house to have gas. I had to pay a gas dude to come out and run a gas line up the side of my house, into my attic, and down an inside wall to get a gas stovetop. It was worth it, but damn...

You're a man after my own heart when it comes to pepper.

Oooooooooooooooooor, maybe not. :-)

I've had excellent luck with all sausages I've purchased with that Go Texan logo on it.

Ever cook with gas?

If you poke a hole through the burger patty. ala a bagel, then when it cooks, it'll not shrink and turn into a puck, but rather just flatten out a bit.

I have a new love. It's not even really all that innovative, but tweaks just enough to be nearly perfect.

Jimmy Dean sage patty sausage
Tillamook sharp cheddar
egg, fork scrambled then fried in butter
Cobblestone slider rolls

The slider rolls are the key difference. Bought them because they were on the day-old rack, but inspiration struck when I was trying to decide if I wanted toast with breakfast.

Just the right size for the sausage patty, different enough from biscuits and croissants to shake things up. A nice touch of sweetness in the dough to juxtapose flavors. Not crumbly or flaky, so the sammiches don't fall apart.

[note - a couple of my breakfast pet peeves is are, mismatched breakfast sammich ingredients, ie tiny sausage on a huge biscuit or vice versa, and crumbly sammiches that make a mess, particularly if taken to go]

Two is a little light, four is too many if you also have potato/fruit/oatmeal sides, but not too much to be a decent entire workday breakfast.

I had two with a side of oatmeal and coffee, two more made up to snack on later.

Never tried that specifically, but those Cobblestone rolls are good. :-)

Dunno if my egg description is clear, but it's how I learned to make breakfast sammy eggs at Hardees clear back in HS, and is SFAIK how they make them everywhere.

crack eggs in a pitcher/bowl sufficient for however many you intend to make. Approx 1 egg per sammy [at Hardees we'd crack 2 dozen at a time and put them on a refrigerated pedestal near the grill. Usually cooked in 20 minutes or so.

Whisk entire batch vigorously.

Use a standard ladle and ladle the egg onto 1/2 pat butter on grill [after pat melted and starts bubbling].

Let pool of scrambled egg cook mostly through undisturbed, flip. Fold into quarters [ie, 1/2 moon, then 1/4 moon]. Serve.

not on a real cooktop

I had gas at the last house I owned. I was running a cheapo depot gas stove and it wasn't very good. Wife wanted glass top when it crapped out. Happy wife happy life. I spent decent money and got a good one. It cooks pretty decent.


I'll keep that in mind. Thanks!

I fuggin love pepper. LOVE IT. I went through and tried to cut some salt out in college and bought a pepper mill, now I pepper the fuck out stuff. Love it.

Now, that being said, my daughter gets this little dollop of mac and cheese and thinks she needs as much pepper as daddy. She doesn't even know.

How big a hole we talking? This sounds like a good way for Buehler445 to fuck shit up.
