    Hay Dugger: Good old southern comfort food. As A says; this just sorta slipped off the screen and it's time to bring it back. I used to do this with half an English Muffin. Thanks for the heads up and reminder. RJ

    Round here we call them dead eyed dicks. My mother inlaw calls them Gashouse eggs but no matter what you call them there great! Thanks

    Must try this for breakfast on my next day off. I bet it would be good with a slice of cheese on top of the bread too before the hole is cut. 5 forks

    All of this is done on the stovetop. Using a skillet and lid. If you like your eggs more cooked then you can do the same thing in the broiler. This is not my recipe, got it from a Food Network magazine. I love it but I will not take credit for it.
