Ingredients (1 Week Prep)
6 lb (2.7 kg) 88/12 ground beef
26 large eggs
3 lb bacon
10 Italian sausages (no sugar fillers preferred)
Optional (after cooking): butter or tallow for serving
No cheese. No spices. No seasoning.
Prep Instructions
Cook the meats separately
This keeps texture perfect and prevents grease pooling.
Ground Beef
Brown beef in a large skillet over medium heat
Cook until just done (not crispy)
Drain excess fat but leave some for moisture
Italian Sausage
Slice sausages into rounds
Pan-fry until fully cooked and lightly browned
Set aside
Bacon
Slice bacon into pieces
Fry until about 75% cooked (it will finish in the smoker)
Do not over-crisp
Prepare the eggs
Crack 26 eggs into a large bowl
Whisk thoroughly until fully blended
No salt, no seasoning
Assemble the Casserole
Use large disposable foil pans or heavy ceramic dishes.
Spread browned ground beef evenly across the bottom
Pour whisked eggs evenly over the beef
Layer sausage slices on top
Finish with bacon pieces spread evenly
Press gently so everything settles together.
