Portuguese Breakfast Egg Skillet

• 8 farm fresh eggs
• 1 loaf Sourdough bread
• 2 Tbsp Olive oil
• 1 Tbsp Portuguese pepper sauce

Sausage Recipe:

• 1 lb ground pork
• 1 tsp Kosher salt
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• ¹/₄ tsp white pepper
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• ¹/₄ tsp chili flakes
• 1 Tbsp white wine
• 2 Tbsp Portuguese pepper sauce (heaping)

Sausage Preparation:

1. Make sure pork is cold, add to mixing bowl and mix in all dry ingredients
2. Slowly add white wine and Portuguese pepper sauce and mix well with hand until pork becomes tacky on side of bowl and looks like it has a little bounce. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)
3. Form into one large patty about 1.5 inch thick and place on parchment lined sheet pan and put in fridge until ready to cook

Putting it all together:

1. Start up your wood fired grill to about 400F (it's ok to not use a wood grill but it won’t be as amazing!)
2. Place the cast iron pan on the grill to pre-heat
3. Once it has been on for about 5 minutes, add 2 Tbsp of the olive oil to pan
4. Place the sausage patty to pan and cook until it is caramelized one the one side
5. Flip over and cook for 3 more minutes then crack eggs and spread around the patty.
6. Cook eggs until yolks are still soft but whites are fully cooked
7. Drizzle eggs with the 1 Tbsp of Portuguese pepper sauce and serve while its hot
8. Serve with a whole loaf of sourdough bread, it is meant to be ripped apart and used to soak up all the delicious sausage fats, egg yolks and Portuguese pepper sauce
