Southern breakfast.....hmmm,hmmm, good

Ingredients

6 thick bacon slices
2 1/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup uncooked stone-ground grits
2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon black pepper, divided
2 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
6 large eggs
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup sliced green onions
Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon; drain and crumble. Transfer 2 tsp. bacon drippings to a saucepan.

2. Bring drippings, milk, and butter to a boil over medium heat. Gradually whisk in grits, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper; cook, whisking constantly, 15 minutes or until very thick. Remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in 1 cup cheese; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in 1 egg; spread in a 9-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray.

3. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until set and browned. Sprinkle remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese over warm grits, spreading to edges. Let stand 15 minutes.

4. Reduce oven temperature to 325°. Combine half-and-half, cream, onions, and remaining 5 eggs, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Pour over grits; sprinkle with crumbled bacon. Place pan on a foil-lined baking sheet.

5. Bake at 325° for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until lightly browned and just set. Let stand 20 minutes. Run a sharp knife around edges of quiche; remove sides of pan.

What happened in the south stayed in the south!!!

Hi: All... Here's a breakfast dish I did at Townsend Tenn. rally. We were surprised with a pot luck breakfast due to Sat. nites weather so it was an off the cuff what's in the fridge dish. Brought home an empty pot so it must have been good.

In a Dutch oven fry up some 1" cuts of bacon.
Add some chopped Spanish onion fried to soften.
Mean time grille some Johnsonville Brats till marked and warmed thru. Cut in 1" pieces diagonally.
Add a jar of Sauerkraut w/ carrots and heat together.
Enjoy Alf

Jim, that's the same recipe my cardiologist gave me. He said eat this every day and you'll be dead in 6 months. I'm planning on a little Jaternice for the Niagara Rally and will bring you some peppers if my bro has a good crop again this year. One of my high points for the appreciation Rally was a $62 pit stop for cheese at Tillamook and a double dip Ice Cream.

Yup, hard to read that stuff when you've just chowed down on a 1/2 grapefruit and a bowl of porridge.

Sounds good... but with two hours of cooking time before breakfast, someone is getting up early!

If you bring peppers Dave make sure we eat them all, don't try crossing back into the US with them Remember Alf and his story of half a green onion which put him on the "bad" list with US customs What the heck is Jaternice anyway?

I think Alf was also given a demerit for the bugs on his trailer crossing the border....

Adrian. When I cross the border I try to be right on the money with those
people. This year the Canadian at Sumas asked me 15
Questions. 14 were about how I liked the Escape. Then coming back in the American inspected the contents of the refrigerator. His only comment. "Ooooh Tillamook Cheese". Then I missed the exit at sweetgrass Montana and had to get in line to leave the US. I pulled up past the stop sign in an X lane. Lost a piece of
my butt for that. Immediately returned to the US and the American says. did you purchase anything on your short stay in Canada. So all in all it worked out ok. Jaternice is a Czech sausage either bulk or in a casing. It's made from liver and its counterpart is jelita which is a blood and barley concoction which is Boiled or fried. Both can do a job On your digestive system unless you a Czech.
Stick with poutine, would be my advice.

On my last trailer trip southward, the border guard asked about vegetables in the fridge. Handed him an itemized list of the fridge contents.

Looked at it, waved me through with a "have a nice trip sir!".




...

Surprised Dave you hadn't had Cheezies before?

Nope never before. We shared half a bag so we'd have some tomorrow. They are tasty.
