Even though I rarely do it, I LOVE to go out to eat for breakfast.  :)

What I like to get, at most restaurants with big breakfast menus (Cracker Barrel, IHOP) , is 3 pancakes with blueberry syrup,  2 eggs, cooked over medium, crispy bacon (if it's not crispy, I won't eat it), and either orange juice or milk. 

If I had to pick ONE specific breakfast food, it would be bacon (pork OR turkey).

My daughter has worked for Cracker Barrel for years.  I get 15% off!   :old:

Omelette with mushrooms, sausage, tomatoes, peppers, cheese, homestyle potatoes, and toast with REAL butter and lime marmalade or strawberry preserves.

I'm ok with pancakes, but I like them how ******* Barrel makes them where the butter kind of crisps the edges.


I don't usually eat out though for breakfast---occasionally for a treat--not necessarily for monetary reasons but because I'd rather not become an obese shut in.  :o

omg--the word CR*acker was bleeped out :lmao:

Then you will have to move.  It's not worth living somewhere a Cracker Barrel is not.

That's not right.  Cracker Barrels should be required at every busy interstate exit. LOL  (if they aren't already there, of course :p )

Nobody does a skillet breakfast like I do.

I parboil some russets with salt & pepper in the water (potatoes in large "chips"), but not till they're done, then while that's going, cube up some thick-sliced bacon, then throw that in my 8-inch cast iron skillet and get it rockin'.

When the bacon is good and crispy, out with a slotted spoon, pour off SOME of the bacon fat, then the taters go in the pan. Season with salt & pepper again.

Get those nicely browned and about 5 minutes before they're done, I throw in some chopped onions and bell peppers and get those caramelized.

Just before the stuff is done, I'll sprinkle some killer cheddar over the whole pile and scramble up some eggs (in butter) and put it over everything. The eggs had BEST not be runny. No snot for me, thanks.

Adjust seasoning and garnish with chopped chives.

All that with some rye toast and butter (don't even talk to me about margarine), coffee, OJ, and I'm a happy camper.

WH, for sure.  IHOP is too overpriced and rather chaotic.

Yep, plus they have unlimited bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches on the menu.

That sounds like a plan to me.  

The best way to insure perfect scrambled eggs is to cook them over low medium heat,  remove them from the burner before you think they are done, cover the skillet, and let them finish cooking by retained heat.   It never fails.

I keep mine plain, actually.  My mom and I have this very weird habit of mixing ketchup, mustard, and several drops of Tabasco sauce as a nice addition to the hashbrowns.    :-)

Yuck! One to many nights from the old days getting sober at the "Awful House".  :( (good enough coffee though)
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

Correctly done hash browns are an art.  It really depends on the cook.

No  :mental: from me.  I mix ketchup, mustard, and tabasco al l the time.  It's great on meatloaf and french fries too.
