Breakfast Sloppy Joes
1 8-pack package of English Muffins
1 pound breakfast sausage
2 cups grated cheese
8 eggs
2 cups milk plus a little extra for the scrambled eggs
1/4 cup flour
1/4 drippings from cooked sausage OR 1/4 cup butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Lightly toast English Muffins then place on a cookie sheet.
In a large cast iron skillet, cook sausage until done. Remove cooked sausage to a plate.
Pour off all but 1/4 cup drippings (or use butter if there's not enough drippings). Stir in flour and cook for 3 - 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
Pour in the milk, salt and pepper to taste and cook and stir until thick.
Stir cooked sausage into the gravy. Set aside but keep warm.
In a clean skillet, scramble the eggs with a little milk, salt and pepper.
Spoon sausage gravy over the English Muffins then add some scrambled eggs.
Sprinkle cheese over the top and broil on high for a minute or two to melt the cheese and warm through.
Let's go!
Toast the muffins and place
them on a cookie sheet.
Cook the sausage then remove from
the skillet, leaving 1/4 cup fat in the
pan. I had to use 1/4 cup butter because
my sausage rendered almost no fat at all.
Pour in the flour and cook
and stir for a few minutes.
Then pour in the milk and allow to
thicken. Then add the sausage and stir.
Scramble the eggs with a little milk.
Start building your sloppy joes!
Heat under the broiler to melt the cheese.
Plate 'em up!
