Used to be this old BBQ place on 9-mile road in Pensacola.

I forget the name now but they remodeled and nobody ever went back. Looking back I assume ownership changed.

However, to answer your question, I always got...

2 over easy, grits, toast and REAL link sausage.

Soak up that runny egg and grits mixture with some buttered toast and occasional fatty smoked sausage.

Bacon can't even touch that.

You say cajun, I immediately think of beignets. First had some when I stopped in N'awlins in the late 90's. I can taste em!

In the next week, I challenge you to treat yourselves to your childhood breakfast, if possible and if not hazardous to your health.

Otto, you still in SK? I do miss the Korean BBQ there. I stayed in the Shilla-Stay in Dongtan a few years back and right around the corner was the best tabletop BBQ restaurant I ever ate at. I do hope to go back some day. I do miss the bulgogi and the samgyup-sal!

Cap’n Crunch with milk, buttered toast.

Cinnamon Sugar Or Peanut Butter toast and some sugary cereal. These days it is biscuits and gravy, no doubt.

Pig in a blanket. Link sausage rolled up in a pancake.

My list will be too long. I liked damn near everything my ma cooked.

Eggs, bacon, hash browns. Eggs are over easy and the yolk is mixed into potatoes.

Oatmeal and I still enjoy it.

Either pancakes, waffles, or French toast, buttered and maple-syrupped, with bacon. Mom made bacon the way I still think it's best: in a raised-rack broiler pan under the broiler. Perfect texture, and grease drips off as it cooks.

I liked grape nuts cereal and Dad would sometimes make fried baloney, grits and eggs. Mom made pancakes - variety during the week.

You asked favorite... so for me it was waffles with maple syrup with bacon or little breakfast sausages to offset the sweetness. Now what I had most days was cereal along with some OJ. It's been awhile but I think it was corn flakes or cheerios sometimes with some fruit in it like bananas. There weren't many of the "candy" cereals around when I was a kid and if there were any, they didn't make it to our house.

Captain Crunch w/ Crunchberries.

As a child, I much preferred these than eggs and toast.

Almost ditto- regular Cap'n Crunch and Quisp were my staples.

This is EXACTLY what I was going to say. Breakfast was usually cereal so French toast or biscuits and gravy I loved. Especially biscuits and gravy which I still love today!!!!

When I was a kid, I loved really sugary breakfast cereals. My favorite was count chocula and my 2nd favorite was cocoa puffs. I liked the cereal and loved drinking the chocolatey leftover milk.

Cinnamon toast moms way, butter on white bread, sprinkle sugar over it, dust with cinnamon, and broil in oven. Lots better than the usual corn flakes.

Pretty much this, except never tried it with chocolate milk...... will give it a go!

Bacon,eggs,toast and gravy, Captain crunch a close second.

In the early-late 50s my favorite cereal was the large biscuit Shredded Wheat, followed by cheerios.

Later home built sour dough pancakes with maple syrup and bacon was the winner.

Corned beef hash with two eggs over medium. I ate this breakfast with my dad hundreds of times over the years.

Pillsbury cinnamon rolls with vanilla icing. Miss sitting in front of the TV watching Saturday morning cartoons - something else the Demonrats destroyed.

Christmas morning was of course special. We'd have pancakes, bacon, eggs, ham, croissants, etc... after opening 1 present. The full belly would be ignored as we dug into our remaining presents on that morn.
