Cracker Barrel's Old Timer's Breakfast
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup of stone-ground grits
- 2 cups of water
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 4 slices of bacon
- 4 pork sausage patties
- Butter for serving
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Stir in 1 cup of stone-ground grits and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the grits are cooking, cook 4 slices of bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, cook 4 pork sausage patties until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In a separate non-stick skillet, melt a small amount of butter over medium heat. Crack 4 large eggs into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness, either sunny-side up or over easy.
- Once the grits are done cooking, divide them between two plates. Top each plate of grits with 2 cooked eggs, 2 slices of bacon, and 2 sausage patties.
- Serve immediately with a pat of butter on top of the grits, and enjoy your Cracker Barrel's Old Timer's Breakfast!
