Bacon, Eggs and Fried Mush

Bacon eggs and fried mush is one of my favorite breakfasts. It always brings memories of Mom frying up some of her homemade mush. She sliced it about a ¼ inch thick and fried it crispy in bacon grease and did the eggs in bacon grease too; basting them to get the tops done.

Most southerners grow up on grits for breakfast. I never had grits until I got away from home and now they are a favorite too.

I used my Wapak skillet and fried two batches of bacon then did 4 slices of mush. I dust the mush with flour, it helps keep them from popping. The Yoders brand I buy does not pop that much, some I have bought really pops from the water left in. I used to make my own but this is much easier.

After I fry my bacon on med. I turn it down to med. low and do the mush. Put it in the skillet and don’t mess with it for 8 minutes then turn it. I do mine for 10 minutes each side for crispy mush. My Wapak skillet did well with the mush and egg; neither one stuck any. I had toasted muffin and buttermilk with it.Tasted great!

Fried Cornmeal mush is essentially the same as fried polenta. It's fairly popular up here, especially around Amish country where restaurants serve it on breakfast buffets.  If you like grits, then you'd like mush.

I love it with some Maple syrup on it. YUM!!!

When I tell my girls we are having grits - they say yuck. When I say it's polenta (which they had originally in Africa of all places) they say yum. Go figure. Unfortunately, my wife won't try either...  :(

This breakfast looks great and I think I'll make some fried "polenta" this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration!

Omg..love fried mush, simple to make, I mix water and milk, some salt and a lil bacon grease, then add the cornmeal, put it in a loaf pan and bake for a lil bit or layer it with mozzarella cheese in a bowl and bake for about 15 minutes, heaven. I like mine with butter and salt and pepper.  Pam
