THE FIRST INSTALLMENT OF "THE CYCLING CHEF"

My new skillet and grate. What a shame they had to get dirty.

First, add the sausage.

Remove the sausage, add your potatoes, on this occasion it was tater tots.


Re-introduce the sausage.



Add one dozen eggs!




Cover with copious amounts of cheese.





I make mine into a breakfast burrito.






Salsa to taste!







Clean up sucks! Just a warning.

For the past two years my family has been camping with a group of wonderful people. There is a ritual on these trips that one of the mornings, our friends John and Robin cook what is called "MESS"! The basic formula is in step by step photos above, but the concept behind it's invention is to clear out all the leftovers of the weekend in one giant gut filling feed! My apologies to all my vegan readers. Eggs, meat, cheese are the ingredients that pull this feast together. This weekend we were camping solo, and I did not want to go into caloric withdrawal. So while at Cabellas last weekend, purchased a 14" cast iron skillet! This skillet has "MAN" written all over it!!!! I also had my good friend Larry C from work ,help fabricate a grate to put over the fire. With the tools necessary, I was ready to try my first 'solo' run of the mess. Tasty as it was, it's not the same without good friends. One thing that is a fact about this recipe. The MESS makes a huge MESS to clean up after. Also, a 2 to 3 hour ride must follow. Burning off the 1000+ calories you just ate is a good idea! Ty
