Sausage Or Beef S O S Stuff On A Shingle Recipes

S.O.S. (SHIT ON A SHINGLE) - A COMFORT FOOD MAKEOVER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°
• Arrange bread slices on a half-sheet pan or large cookie sheet. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle generous amounts of onion and garlic powder over the top. Bake at 375° until top is golden, flip and brush other side of bread with olive oil. Return to oven until the bread is golden brown and crisp. (About 7 minutes total.) Remove from heat and set aside. May be served hot or cold, works perfectly as a crouton for salads or soups, or as base for a crostini.
• Brown ground beef and ground pork in a large skillet over medium to medium high heat. Once all meat is well browned, transfer to colander to drain. (Do this over a large bowl to catch any drippings. You don't want them in your drains.)
• Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel, add 2 Tablespoons olive oil and reheat. Add onions and cook until soft and just translucent (About 4 minutes).
• Add garlic and cook 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Add shiitake mushrooms, cook for 1 minute, then add button mushrooms. Continue cooking vegetable mixture until mushrooms are golden.
• Season vegetable mixture with salt and pepper. (Doing this before cooking the mushrooms would significantly lengthen browning time.) Return ground meat to pan and stir to distribute all ingredients. Sprinkle flour over mixture and stir well to distribute and coat pieces evenly. (about 1 minute or until the flour smells nutty.)
• Add milk and sour cream, and Worcestershire sauce, stirring constantly until liquids are just below a boil. (Do not let the milk boil. If you do, it will separate and curdle. Definitely not a good thing.) Remove from heat, test for seasoning.
• Serve approximately one tbsp of mixture per slice of toast.

S.O.S. (CREAMY HAMBURGER GRAVY) +VIDEO

Steps:

• In a medium sauce pan over medium high heat, brown the ground beef. Season with a little salt and pepper. Drain excess grease and set aside.
• Melt butter in the same sauce pan. Add flour and whisk until butter/flour mixture is bubbly.
• Add milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk continuously until thick and bubbly.
• Add cooked ground beef back in and stir.
• Taste and adjust seasoning as needed (I usually like a bit more pepper). If necessary, add a little more milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
• Serve over toast.

SOS (STUFF ON A SHINGLE)

Steps:

• In a deep heavy pot, brown the butter and then brown the meat in browned butter.
• Add onion, pepper and celery and cook till they just start to soften. Season with salt & pepper.
• Without draining off fat or juices, stir in enough flour to absorb all liquids.
• Stir in Tomatoes, hot water and tomato juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly till mixture starts to thicken.
• Stir in Nutmeg and continue to cook for about five minutes to insure flour cooks. If you don't think it is thick enough, add some more flour well mixed in cold water.
• Serve hot over toast, biscuits, pancakes or corn bread, even a bagel.
• Freeze leftovers in individual serving in sealed sandwich baggies. Reheat in microwave and bust your gut again!

SOS -- "STUFF" ON A SHINGLE

Steps:

• Combine ground beef, onion and garlic on a large skillet or pot, and brown the beef.
• Once the beef is browned and your onions clear, add the flour. There are two important things to note here - (1) Do not drain the beef (2) Add enough flour to completely absorb all the liquid in the pan.
• Once all fluid is absorbed by the flour and you have a nice roux, add your milk. Again, remember that the measures are approximate. So, you want to add about twice as much milk as flour.
• *Do not be afraid of adding too much milk. If you do, you will just have to cook it for longer in the next step, but the flavor will reward you for your efforts.
• Season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and slowly cook away the fluid, stirring often, until you have a nice thick milk gravy.
• Spoon generous amounts over dry toast (like an open-faced sandwich) and enjoy.
• We never have it with a salad or veggies, but they would go well this dish.
