This is one of my favorite breakfasts over a fire.

Turkey Breakfast Biscuits and Gravy

Ingredients
Ӣ 1 teaspoon Table Salt
Ӣ 1 teaspoon Sugar
”¢ ½ teaspoons Black Pepper
”¢ ½ teaspoons Dried Parsley
”¢ ½ teaspoons Rubbed Sage
”¢ ¼ teaspoons Ground Marjoram or Oregano
”¢ ¼ tsp onion powder
Ӣ 1 tsp garlic powder
”¢ ¼ teaspoons Dried Thyme
”¢ ¼ teaspoons Red Pepper (optional)
Ӣ 2 teaspoons Water
Ӣ 1 pound Ground Turkey
Ӣ 2/3 cup coarse ground cornmeal
Ӣ 1 heaping TB schmaltz (rendered chicken fat)

Preparation Instructions

Mix all and form into a log. Best to let sit overnight.

Add 1 tsp oil to cast iron skillet and heat. Add sausage meat breaking into small pieces as you add it to the pan or breaking it apart in the pan with two forks, spatulas, etc.

After sausage is browned thoroughly, add 1 or 2 tsp oil, butter, or other fat and about 3 TB flour.

Stir and cook 2 or 3 minutes. Add 2 cups chicken stock (can be from bouillion).

Cook and stir until thickened. Add more water and flour/water mixture until desired quantity and consistency is achieved. Serve over hot or cold leftover biscuits.

What is your fatorite breakfast?
 
that's fancy vittles for a 'trek' but common enough for deer camp I suppose although the 'sausage' is likely mixed venison/pork - yummy!
a favorite hot breakfast on a 'trek' is grits slow simmered with generous dab of butter, precooked bacon pieces crumbled and added and even precooked boiled egg shelled then added to. and a shake of black ground pepper.
cooked, drained bacon and cooked boiled eggs will last quite a while in a pack during cool weather.
 
A regular scramble. Egg's, spud's, onion, cheese, bacon. One pan meal no messing around. Coffee or tea.
 
I was visiting with couple Greek buddies that have a restaurant here in town. They had a big pot on the grill cooking chunked pork belly. They reminded me what I had forgotten that back in the villages they used pork fat for cooking for hundred of years. Once the fat was extracted the meat was allowed to cool and used as breakfast food.. I tried some today and it was quite good. I would think someone on the move might make a batch of pork belly to take on his trek. Only seasoning they used to spice the pork with was paper and salt.
Twice.
 
I always have a container of rendered bacon fat in the fridge for cooking. Makes frying potatoes and eggs taste so much better.
 
Probably a good recipe for home, but to much "FOO FRAW" to carry camping and the like! The smell of frying bacon and eggs, with fried 'tators is hard to beat any morning at home or at camp!
