So I came across this yesterday and gave it a shot today. I don't think I'll ever eat eggs any other way! I REALLY liked how these came out.

    never tried the oil but will. i like a quarter inch of bacon grease and some butter, crispy edges and soft runny center, spooning the grease on top is key
    :D

    Funny - we used to call these "Grandpa Eggs" growing up because that's how my grandma always made them for him. I've been making eggs this way ever since I could cook. They really turn out great each time. Just be careful not to overcook them (it's easy to do). I usually pull them off when the top of the yoke has turned white. Cool article!

    Interesting. Sounds very similar to what we do ( and @fishlessman ) using the bacon grease we have left over from cooking the bacon right before hand. Course my way probably isn't very healthy...

    I've done the bacon grease way too (usually my go-to method) but the olive oil way is really good since it's deeper so it's more like deep(ish)frying it. I never got the brown crunchy ring doing them in bacon grease before.
