Everyone decided to sleep in this morning so decided to treat myself to breakfast on my new Blackstone griddle. Thick cut H-E-B maple bacon, eggs, and hash browns (cooked in the leftover bacon fat, you know, so as not to be wasteful ). Rounded out with some BRCC Gunship and protected by the HD P-30 in .40 with TLR-7.

Looks good!

Nice !!

Looks fantastic.

Looks good. I had HEB bacon for breakfast yesterday, and HEB sausage for breakfast today.

I have half a left-over baguette, so it's French toast here in the V-Tail kitchen today.

No need to mention bacon, that's automatic.

Mmm, that reminds me that I haven’t done French toast on the griddle yet. Maybe Christmas morning for the family...

We finally got an H-E-B out west of Fort Worth earlier this year. Prior to that we’d been driving 30 mins one way down to Granbury or Burleson for our fix. Now it’s 5 mins away. Funny how much you can get spoiled by a grocery store and not know it till you move away.

It looks great, but what the heck is in your coffee mug?

Looks good but I like my scrambled eggs a bit less less cooked.

I never eat breakfast, but I’ll soon be making a bacon, peanut butter, and Marmite sandwich for lunch.

Lol.
Looks like Black Rifle Milk with a splash of coffee. But the bacon looks good!

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he's got a splash of bourbon eggnog with his coffee.

A little tip for creamy scrambled eggs is to add some half and half and a nice slab of butter to them. You're welcome.

Haha, I was waiting for that. Truth be told I’ve never been a coffee guy till the last six months or so, still not much of one. I have a single cup each morning to get going at that’s it. And only the Gunship blend I buy at the house. Won’t drink it anywhere else or at any other time of the day. I’m trying to slowly pull back on the cream/sugar but it’s going to be a long conversion.

Me too. I’m still learning he cold zones on this griddle, they cooked way too fast when I poured them on. Next time I’ll probably leave one zone completely off and let the residual heat from the adjacent burner do it’s thing.

I’ve always achieved creamy eggs via the low and slow method on the stove, very little butter or anything needed that way.

HEB! A Texas instituition! Good looking breakfast. I had irish whiskey and leftover soup for breakfast. For dinner, a scallop fritatta. Going Bizzaro World style at casa kablammo today.

YUMM. Bacon!!! Great looking Combo platter.

Looks delicious. And I approve of your protection!

I have the Camp Chef 3 burner camp stove. One 24" griddle sits over 2 of the burners and one 12" griddle sits over the single burner. I always cook eggs on the single burner griddle. Meat and potatoes on the larger griddle. I put the burner on the single griddle just under medium heat for about 10 minutes before I want to add eggs. Then I shut it off a couple minutes before I add the eggs. The residual heat is plenty to cook the eggs. I keep pushing the eggs to the back of the griddle at first as that's the cool spot. Once they start to firm up I can pull them to the middle and let finish. Takes maybe 3 to 4 minutes.

I'm not a creamy egg fan the texture makes me think under cooked. I'm not a big egg fan to begin with scrambled is the only way I can eat them. I like fluffy eggs that are a bit firm. I whisk in a teaspoon or so of soda water to get fluffy eggs.

I love watching a good short order cook on a flat top. We have a old school diner in town I love to go to for breakfast. I sit at the counter when a seat is open there so I can watch the gal that runs the place use the flat top. She can have 3 breakfast sandwiches some with cheese and some without and three regular breakfast with different combinations of american fries or hash browns scrambled or easy over and bacon ham or sausage all going at the same time and do it while she's talking to a customer. She makes it look so easy!

I hope you don't mind having your photos stolen. This one is going to be resurfacing on the web for a long while.
