Those Campfire Recipes - One Eyed Jacks

This is one of my favorite recipes at the camp kitchen and at my own kitchen, too....mouthwatering buttery goodness, protein, and, if cooked til the yolk is firm, a one handed One Eyed treat ;-)

You'll need the following for each "Jack":
  • one egg
  • one slice bread (I like sourdough with this)
  • one generous pat of butter
This is the easiest recipe in the world. Melt the butter in your pan. Take the slice of bread and tear a hole in the middle about the size of the average egg yolk. Start frying the bread in the pan and break the egg over it so that the yolk hits the hole. Slowly fry/toast the bread until golden and the egg is cooked on the bottom, then flip and fry until the egg is completely cooked.

I like mine runny so it stays on a plate with a fork but if you cook until the yolk is hard you can eat this with one hand making it a perfect run around the campground food.
