Ingredients
- 4-5 pieces raw biscuit dough
Instructions
Set the EGG for indirect cooking with a convEGGtor at 350°F/177°C. Add a baking stone dusted with cornmeal to preheat.
Place the biscuits directly on stone about 1 inch apart from each other. Cook for 15-20 minutes. Let biscuits stand and cool.
Red-eye gravy Ingredients
- 4 ounces speck
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for ham if necessary
- ½ cup strong black coffee
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- ½ cup bone broth
Red-eye gravy Instructions
Set the EGG for direct cooking without a convEGGtor at 375°F/191°C. Add a cast iron skillet to preheat.
Add the speck (and a touch of butter if the ham is lean to help the browning process) and cook until the ham is browned and fat has rendered, 1-2 minutes per side. Gently heat up roasted tomatoes in the same skillet. Once speck is crispy and fat has rendered, remove from pan and set on surface/cutting board.
Pour coffee into the same skillet and cook over medium-high heat, scraping the skillet with a wooden spoon to deglaze and loosen any browned bits. Add the broth and sugar; simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced.
Remove the skillet from the EGG and add the speck back in to warm through and coat or pour over ham in bowl.
