The other day Sandman gave me some of his home cured apple
wood smoked bacon. Sandman is the user name of fellow Let’s Talk BBQ forum
member, and friend who runs the Beer & Wine Depot, a drive thru carry out. We
exchange ideas and sometimes samples of food we BBQ or cook. I fried some up for our lunch today, just got
finished eating. Fried mush and cheese omelets complimented it.
I only have bacon and eggs every couple of weeks. If I want
to indulge I fry my eggs in the bacon grease and use a spoon to baste the top
with the bacon grease. Then some fried mush just makes it all better! Mush is
simply cornmeal cooked up as thick porridge then placed in a loaf pan and
cooled in the fridge. Then it is sliced thick or thin and fried. I like mine
sliced thin and fried in the bacon grease until golden brown and crisp.
I used to make my own mush but now to save time I buy it
from the grocery. Yoder’s brand is the best, an Amish family company that sells
Amish food products around the area. Here in the US fried mush is mostly
popular in the mid-west and north-east. Some people like it with maple syrup
but I like a dab of butter, salt and pepper on mine.
I used some four cheese shredded Mexican cheese in the
omelets. My wife had a one egg omelet, a slice of bacon and a slice of mush;
she eats a little lighter than me! I had a two egg omelet, 3 slices of mush,
with butter, salt and pepper, and 4 slices of bacon.
That was a good breakfast, (lunch)!
