Grits & eggs...a hunters breakfast?

[Don Stokes]

Ron, them instant grits are an abomination. Only the slow-cooked kind taste like good ol' hominy grits instead of cardboard.

Young-uns might eat their grits with butter and sugar down here, but us grown-ups don't want 'em sweet. Save that for the tea.

Breakfast after a successful hunt in this house consists of tenderloin, eggs over easy, grits, and either toast or real biscuits. Salt the grits while they cook, add lots of butter when they're done, and pepper them liberally on the plate. Homemade peach preserves for the bread. Yum!

you could live of grits! i love them with two fried eggs and slice of ham can't go wrong.

I do enjoy a good greasy southern breakfast (including grits) but my stomach can't handle it before an early morning hunt. If I eat that stuff I better be looking for a good size tree to hunker behind as soon as I hit the woods!

Give me peanut butter toast and coffee for a hunters breakfast.

I like hashbrowns (from taters from the garden) with two eggs (from the hen house out back) right on top of the hashbrowns then covered with salsa (made by my wife from garden fixins) and a big bowl of grits.  I like them about any way they can be fixed!  That my friend is fine dining.

Notice there was an absence of innards, feet, testicles and heads.  The Good Lord made animals out of meat for us to eat.  Innards are for keeping the meat fresh till I can kill it, feet are made to help it move around and fatten up for the aformentioned kill, testicles are to make more meat and the head is to make all that stuff work together...  Ain't none of that stuff made for eatin'.

Good GAWWD I don't think I'm ever gonna eat breakfast again after this one. I'm gonna check the Special K label make sure you guys arn't hiding and okra,grits,scapple,head cheese, hairy balls etc in there.

[bornagainbowhunter]

Special K ain't man food!!!

[robtattoo]

Gee Dave, the way y'all are talkin' about moosly, special K & yogurt, you're making sound like food.


I thought you mixed all that lot together to make spackle.

To bring this back round to trad archery a bit....

Can grits quiet your bow or do they help make a more effective grunt call later in the morning?

 

[Mudd]

I doubt it'll do either of those things but I won't say you couldn't use it as a glue to back a bow with snake skins.

You might be able to take one of the small lumps and make a nocking point for your string . Once you let it dry you wouldn't be moving it for sure.

It not only will stick to your ribs but anything else it touches too. I know of which I speak since I sometimes had to wash the pot that wa almost ruined by it every time mom made the stuff..lol

God bless,Mudd

[Don Stokes]

Mudd, you're right about the way cooked grits will stick to most anything. I make it a point to rinse the pot and utensils as soon as possible. I don't think they'd make good glue because of the "grittiness", but they would make a good non-skid coating for tool handles and slippery floors.

I never have enough left over to experiment with other uses, though.

I'm sorry, but "Ron Bob" just doesn't have the right ring to it.

MUdd,
I still can't believe you'd put mackerel patties in oatmeal.  a fella had it right before. Canned mackerel is only fit for baiting traps. That is if you want to catch skunks & possums. If you have a good breakfast with lots of grits, you can shoot a 10lb. heavier bow & hold it for 10 seconds longer than you need to. You can also take a dull broadhead, put the edge between your thumb & finger nails & pull the arrow thru & pull off enough steel to make it razor sharp. Won't eat grits but will eat possum bait. beats all I ever heard.

[Bonebuster]

I`ve gotten some good laughs from all of this!!!
 

[Mudd]

HA! Eating grits ain't no laughing matter...lol

I guess if someone were to offer me a place to come hunt with them where I could shoot at a pig or something southern like that I could bring myself to eat whatever breakfast they fixed even if it was grits...lol

But I would have to be able to reserve the right do only have to eat it once..lol

God bless,Mudd

[todd smith]

It must be because of my kin folk from Texas and Mississippi... I was born and raised in Minnesota, but from them the first time I ever had grits, warm, with plenty of butter, salt and pepper, I know'd I'd come home...  They're great.  When I moved to the bush I took plenty of grits with me.  Love 'em.  Just don't ruin 'em with sugar or anything sweet.  They ain't cream-of-wheat!
Now I need to go buy some.  It has been a while.
Mmmmmmmm...  

[Thumper Dunker]

I think Mudd is the only normal guy Bet you guys suck on pickled pigs feet also.  Yuck.

[4-fletch]

I JUST FOUND THIS YALL ARE KILLEN ME.I HAVE TO SAY EGGS OVER EASY AND SOFT FRIED TATERS WITH BACKSTRAP AND BISCUITS AND LETS NOT FORGET THE GRAVY.NOW THATS GOOD FIXENS.THANKS FOR THE LAUGH JAMES  

[gregg dudley]

spackle?  Ain't that the stuff you use to patch holes in your wall?

[alligatordond]

Yes Ron, Grits will stick with you on a cold winter morning. I did a test run in Montana.

And they ain't just for breakfast. Fried fish and cheese grits are a staple in my hunting camp for supper.

In the Fla Keys, grits and grunts(a fish) is a standard breakfast at the Hungry Tarpon

[bucksdown]
