Started cooking some eggs and sausage then wide changed her mind. So I ended up with a griddled Mrs Bairds bun, Jimmy Dean hot patty with griddles onions Oklahoma onion burger style, Dukes mayo, tomatoes, pepper jack, orange marmalade, French’s yella. Better than I thought it would be.

I’m sitting here trying to figure out how no fried egg ended up on this. Could’ve been a masterpiece.

Well I didn’t get the eggs fried because I was just starting when wife changed mind as I was going to fry them in the sausage grease and butter. So I put the eggs up and made this and started eating when I remembered I forgot the egg. These meds I’m on escalate my dumbness factor.

Perhaps you should blame this one on the meds too....

It as very good. Didn’t miss the egg. The orange marmalade was perfect.

My wife likes her eggs fried over easy with a runny yolk and hard whites. I’ve got it down but it’s a pain in the ass. Her changing her mind was welcomed and encouraged.

Which by definition is over easy. A cheap cheat is cover them instead of flipping.

Bingo.  My wife loves eggs over easy, and on the weekends, I like to cook her breakfast.  I have a great small omelette pan - put a pat of butter in there to cover the bottom over medium-low heat (like 3 outta 10), crack two eggs in there, cover.  4 minutes later, perfectly over easy eggs, slide right out onto a plate.  Happy wife.

For me, I made machacado con huevos this weekend (no pics, but it looks like this):

Dried shredded beef fried in oil, some veggies, eggs, a bit of salsa.  Mi-t-fine.

Spanish style eggs.  Lots of butter/oil and baste with the oil while cooking.

[Braff Zacklin 13364]

Few simple meals bring as much pleasure as a couple of eggs over easy/medium on toast**.

 

** I season my eggs with Mrs. Dash Table Blend and a generous drizzle of Tabasco on top of the yolks to "draw the poison out," as my pops was fond of saying.

I like my eggs several ways.  A classic salt and pepper, with runny yolk that you soak up with a biscuit or some toast is just a gotdamn classic.

But I typically more mexican-ify them.  Sometimes I do a louisiana hot sauce (I'm a Crystal man), but more often, some sort of salsa.  I LOVE scrambled eggs covered in salsa doña, I could do that all the damned time.  I also love a classic huevos rancheros style, and this sauce from HEB is fucking great for that:

And sometimes, I love me some chilaquiles topped with fried eggs or just classic New Mexico style eggs with red chile, and this is a fucking WINNER for that application:

Eggs and salsas are what is good in life, friends.

I eat them over easy. I worked in a diner in college and learned how to cook eggs, multiple orders at once of various ways. She likes them with extremely well done whites and very runny yolks. Like over well whites and sunny up consistency yolk. I use a 8 in skillet, with lid, and extra grease/butter, and baste the whites and not the Yeller.

I’m giving you a half-like on that. Because mayo is a glorious breakfast sammich condiment (pro tip - mix it with some Dona sauce for a kick). But Miracle Whip is satan’s smegma.

Is that your homemade jalapeno recipe? If so please post how to do it. I saw something about it a while back but could never find the "how to" post.

I'm not Three Sheets, but I took a stab at pickled japs a couple months ago and have been consistently doing them since, and eating them on everything. Im also lazy AF and don't bother de-seeding them. For a big jar about the size of his in the pic, I doa 1:1 ration of water and vinegar. Usually about a cup and a half of vinegar, a cup and a half of water. Simmer that in a pot on the stove with 2 tablespoons of salt until the salt is dissolved. It doesn't need to get to a rolling boil, just dissolve the salt. Cram the japs in the jar, maybe  with some garlic bulbs at the bottom. Pour the brine over the japs, jar and refrigerate. They're delicious in an hour, and they'll last weeks, although mine never do. 

Some folks put some sugar into the brine to make it sweeter, but not me. Whole process takes about 10 minutes.

A high-acid solution (50/50 water/vinegar) like this is great for pickling because you don't have to water bath the jars after filling and sealing. Much simpler way to can, imo.

Couple of extras for you, though:

1. Good idea to poke holes in the peppers so brine can enter the seed cavities. This ensures no fungus will grow inside.
2.  Fill the jars to the top with the brine solution. No need to leave headspace for a waterbath like with traditional canning methods.

First time I ever pickled my  home-grown peppers this way I thought for sure they'd come out like Aunt Bea's pickles, but I was shocked at how delicious and crispy they were. They would snap with every bite. Way better than anything you can get at the store.

Also, I'd usually let them pickle for 2-3 weeks before opening, but eat however/whenever you want.
