hangtown fry

[Rick's Tropical Delight]

back in the gold rush days, when you hit it big, you'd order a hangtown fry... all the most expensive items on the menu fried up together. here's my take on the recipe. i wasn't sure how this was gonna turn out, but dang! not bad! :biggrin:

here's the new egg off craigslist (my 4th) makin bacon!

egg-washed oysters with cracker crumb breading fried up in the bacon grease

eggs & a little milk whisked together then sprinkled with parsley and dizzy pig swamp venom

when the egg starts to set, plop in a few oysters and stick in some bacon pieces...

pull when the egg sets and serve with hot sauce and fresh horseradish!

that's the first time i've ever had a hangtown fry as well.

#4's name is barney, cause the plan is to sell it to my friend that has the bar so i don't have to cart mine down there all the time

Your sous chef is a real looker.

Oh, yeah, and the food looks good too.

Thank God your here, or else I might start to think my cooking is good!

BTW, Where does one get a pan like the one you cooked the eggs in?

When do we get a family portrait? Three L's and an M, that's a handfull, you could have your own Eggfest in Farmersville! How do you like working at table height? Any plans for a duo nest?

hmmmm... maybe tomorrow for the family photo. i only cooked the bacon in the new one in the table tonight, but it seems ok, i guess. the rest was done in the other egg in a nest. not sure yet about a duo...

that recipe has been around since the 1850's, i just tweaked it a little.

There once was a guy from Ohio,
Whose cookin' made me say oh-my-o;
Bacon and eggs, and oysters to boot,
Only thing missin' is a side of grapefruit;
A delightful meal from Ohio.
