The Retro Plate Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Smashbrowns

   Peel and dice the potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly. Mash the potatoes coarsely with a fork. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the mashed potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes on each side.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a separate skillet, cook the pecanwood-smoked bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and let drain on paper towels.

3. 3

   Cook the Eggs

   Using the same skillet as the bacon or a clean one, cook the eggs to your preference (fried, scrambled, or poached). Season with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Prepare the Biscuits

   Prepare the biscuit mix according to package instructions. Bake as directed until golden brown.

5. 5

   Prepare the Gravy

   In a saucepan, make a roux with flour and a bit of butter over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the milk and cook until thickened. Add sausage and season to taste.

6. 6

   Serve

   Plate the eggs, smashbrowns, and bacon. Serve with a warm biscuit on the side with either jam or gravy.
