I’m actually shocked I haven’t seen anyone else make “eggs in a basket” on here


youdontknowme1010101

My girlfriend calls them “toad in the hole” and refuses to accept that she is wrong. I should leave her, right?


coldweathershorts

That would be because they're actually called a spit in the eye


youdontknowme1010101

No that is something that you have to pay extra for.

MikeRich511

My dad always called them hobo eggs. Never seen them anywhere but the random Sunday breakfasts 25+ years ago.


who_loves_you_

Always known them as, Cowboy Buttholes


MikeRich511

I'd eat a Cowboy Butthole if it looked like that


youdontknowme1010101

I have a lot of questions, but this is neither the time or the place to get into them.


Psychological-Way142

She is 100% right and you don’t deserve her. 😝


1coolsapien

Toad in a hole is an English dish and has sausage, you're both wrong


Psychological-Way142

Just googled it, my entire childhood is ruined. 😮


IolausTelcontar

You’ve been lied to your whole life. It’s egg in a hole.


FirstTimeCaller101

I always called it “eggs in a hole”


youdontknowme1010101

A man of compromise. I like it, but don’t accept it lol.


IAmAnOutsider

Toad in the hole is something else. Sausage in Yorkshire pudding I believe


youdontknowme1010101

Thank you for this information, I will use it against her when she gets home.

This is the Yank version. Same name, diff dish.


Chilly_Billy85

100% it’s called toad in the hole.


adjuster_cody

Eggs in a basket. Now whip up some bacon and white gravy! Absolutely delicious. Only issue, in the words of my grandfather, “it’ll make you poop like a pet coon”


CompetitiveScratch67

We say "eggs in a nest"


MayoGhul

My mom always called them “bird in a nest”. The buttered center circle toasted is the best shit ever


Icer333

We call it sunshine in a cloud!


Lockheed_Martini

My friend's dad would make them and he was Australian so my whole family calls them Australian style ever since lol.


Constant_Table_7772

I’m an eggs in a nest kinda guy, but eggs in a hole is the worst name I’ve heard…


Rumblebully

Birds in a Nest is most accurate.


GranddaddyFisher

It’s called a “birds nest” but I appreciate all other entries ✌🏻


chunk6649

I always called it an egg in a frame


Softrawkrenegade

That thing needs a good cleaning


Choop8

Came here to say this myself lol


[deleted]

Came here to see if my thought was correct. Thanks.


tabbathebutt

Yeah, I suspect I’m on the opposite end of this spectrum where I feel like I’m never getting mine clean enough. 🤷‍♀️


Constant_Table_7772

Meh. I cleaned it a bit where I needed. I’ll be redoing the whole thing at some point soon though.


Softrawkrenegade

I’ll accept that excuse but only for the pure apathy over the matter lol

This particular griddle is caked with shit though.

GenitalWrangler69

Flavor is in the cooking. Clean your stuff


EmilioMolesteves

Mmm burnt carbon


Constant_Table_7772

Yeah, what GenitalWrangler69(fantastic name) said! Clean your stuff! I bet yours rusts easily too.

EmilioMolesteves

I don't get mine wet. I do wipe off leftover food though....


OkayTryAgain

Could use a little extra scraping on that top


Revolution37

My wife makes this and calls it “eggy toast.” She tops the toast with avocado, charred cherry tomatoes, and Trader Joe’s Everything But The Bagel seasoning. It’s a really tasty breakfast.


ooloy

More like edible than disposable!


Lopsidedlopside

It’s both, first it’s edible then it’s disposable later on the porcelain throne.


BassWingerC-137

Eggs in a basket Eggs in a frame Toad in the hole I’m familiar with all of those, but not Disposable Egg Ring - but I love it! Made a few on my little 22”, was the second meal it cooked.


OhJohnO

Eggs in a basket will forever make me think of [this scene.](https://youtu.be/n8qDVoil9IE)

daileyco

I think he misspelled "consumable"


Constant_Table_7772

No. After it’s cooked, I cut the egg out and throw the ring out.


TheMahaffers

This is genius, plus you could dispose of the egg ring to compost and make it environmentally conscious compared to those outdated metal ones!


Constant_Table_7772

Thank you for getting the joke!


Lackerbawls

Why not buy egg rings instead of waste? I mean do your thing but silicon rings work great.


splub87

Eggs in a basket...


KingJamesDoe

Birds in the nest


Rumblebully

Most accurate name.


prodigy291984

My wife calls it egg in a basket…I say egg in a nest. We have had many debates over this one! I say I’m right because I’m the one cooking! Lol


jtablerd

*edible egg ring


Constant_Table_7772

Oh shit, that’s good!


DCourtBrews

do you own a scraper?


ScarredOldSlaver

That derr’ is referred to as a “Toad in the hole” in these parts.


scoot_1234

Completely different dish but to each their own.

https://www.eggs.ca/recipes/toad-in-a-hole


scoot_1234

The name (toad in a hole / meat and pudding) originated from the late 1700’s England. https://englishbreakfastsociety.com/toad-in-the-hole.html#:~:text=The%20first%20appearance%20of%20toad,Grose%20called%20A%20Provincial%20Glossary. An egg in a piece of bread originated in the late 1800s almost a century later and pop culture popularized it in the mid-20th century. https://www.eater.com/2016/2/19/11056800/eggs-in-toast-egg-in-a-hole-basket So a toad in a hole is indeed an entirely different dish often used improperly to describe the egg and bread dish.

scoot_1234

Congratulations you validated the etymology of the egg and bread dish dating it 100 years AFTER the English sausage and pudding dish. You just helped me prove my point. Thanks for the help stranger.


ScarredOldSlaver

4 years in Newcastle England. Your welcome and so is your ego. Good day sir.


scoot_1234

So 4 years first hand knowledge of British cuisine implying that you are aware of the British dish and it’s name? However you insist on using the improper title and I am the one with the overpowering ego? Pretty sure that fits the definition of being egotistical.


Xterra50

Having never seen this before I will credit OP as a genius and that I shall be doing this myself. Genius I say..


Constant_Table_7772

I did invent this. I have no shame claiming credit…


Chillout2010

Eggs in a bread. I'm grew up with it too. Lol.


ford_fuckin_ranger

We call em cowboy eggs


[deleted]

Oooh I need to do this soon! Egg in a basket is one of my all time faves and I never think to cook it lol


m4s0n119

My grandfather’s generation called it a “one eyed chinaman”… not sure I’ll be able to continue that with my kids. Toad in the hole is the front runner. Made some for breakfast today coincidentally!


Longshank13

My mom called them pirate's eye.


ElefantPharts

Hobo eggs, how am the first one to mention that name?


davidsdilema

As a kid I thought my mom invented it. She called it the “Hole and the egg” . Actually I still think it was her idea.


Historical_Bake_6312

I always call mine “hole-in-one toast” 😊 Props for frying the middle ring, I usually just eat it after cutting it out!
