My oops at FL mini-Fest

SSN686 · August 2009

Morning All:

All Saturday evening I was telling everyone that I would cook two Sausage/Cheese rolls for breakfast on Sunday morning while people were packing up. Well, Kathy and I went up to our room at about 11:00pm (3rd floor...no elevator...my knees were not happy...but that would be the only complaint about Tuckaway Shores) to prep the Sausage rolls. As soon as I got in the room I realized I had forgotten the frozen bread...we had the cheese, sausage & eggs, but NO BREAD! I checked on-line to see if there was a Publix or Winn-Dixie still open that late, but no luck. We did find a Wal-Mart SuperCenter (that wasn't very super) as we couldn't find anything to use as a substitute. Now I'm really upset. So I decided I would get up early, go to the Publix to see what I could find. I got to the Publix at about 6:50am, but the sign said they didn't open until 7:00am, however, they said come on in. I got two tubes of Pillsbury French Loaf as I couldn't think of anything else that would work. Got back to the hotel and EggHatter got up to help. She is very good at "unrolling" the French loaf dough without destroying it.

Well it worked, here is one of the rolls...

and a close up...

and the other one...

They weren't as "bready" as normal, but still very tasty.

Nice recovery and they still look great Jay. I read so much about your sausage/cheese bread, gotta try it. Just curious, did you cook two at the same time or one after the other?

Morning Gary:

Used two eggs, one small and one large. PoolmanPat had his there so I just lit them both.

Morning Jim:

Thank you for the kind words. After promising breakfast for everyone, I had to figure out some way to come through!

They still look wonderful. That was nice that EggHatter helped. You still did a good job. Is the recipe on the forum cookbook?

Morning Patti:

The recipe is on my webpage (such as it is)...just click on the link below and go to the "BGE Cooks" page. It is also on the Big Green Egg main website the last I looked.

It is very easy to make and typically we prep it the night before, leave in the fridge and then take it out before starting the Egg in the morning. That gives it time to warm up a little and rise some by the time the Egg is up to temp.

Morning Steve:

Yeah, the Pillsbury stuff does work well. Taste wise it was very similar to the normal bread dough, just not as much bread.

Morning Hoss:

Thanks! Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good and this was one of those times.

Scotty's Inferno · August 2009

Dayum,I'd havta flip a coin between the S/C roll and the Shrimpbugers!!!

Morning Scotty:

Wish you guys could have made it there for the weekend...it was a fun night (and weekend for the others). The website about next year's full Florida EggFest should be up around November 1st. It will be over on the East Coast.

SubVet · August 2009

Just missed you there SSN - You were the guy that convinced me to get the BGE some years ago and I was going to stop by to thank you but didn't want to crash the party.

Hope to see you sometime in the future.

Jay, thanks again for getting up early to feed us breakfast. As if we needed more food. They were del-leci-os! :woohoo: :woohoo:
