US Marine Breakfast
Here's a breakfast recipe for those military people in your life.
This is a pared down version of the famous "SOS" to serve 8 people or 2 hungry Marines! ENJOY! Camp LeJeune SOS 1/2 lb Ground Beef (ground chuck for flavor) 1 tbs Bacon fat (lard/Crisco or butter) 3 tbs Flour 2 Cups whole milk (Add more milk if you want it thinner) 1/8 tsp each of salt & pepper (to taste) 8 slices of dry toast Using a large skillet (12"-14"), crumble and brown the ground beef with the fat and salt. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool slightly. Mix in the flour until all of the meat is covered,using all of the flour. Replace the skillet on the heat and stir in the milk, keep stirring until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens (boil a minimum of 1 minute) Serve over toast. Salt & pepper to taste SEMPER FI!

Great recipe to share Kerch!!! My Marine loves me to make SOS!!!! And so we have it often, and I prefer mine over homemade biscuits, there have been occasions where he will ask me to stir in some frozen english peas. There really is nothing that beats putting a little Hot Sauce on like it goes on SOS!

How long were you in?
I may just have to give your way of eating SOS a try it sounds wickedly delicious and "fattening" hee-hee! Of-course you are aware that this past week was the Marine Corp. Birthday!?! [Nov. 10th] And my Marine celebrated by purchasing himself a new pocket knife that has all the Gadgets!!! "Once a Marina always a Marine!" My guy was in 8 yrs. loved it to no end and wishes he never got out! SEMPER FI !!! Last edited by Cook Chatty Cathy; 11-17-2008 at 02:53 PM.

Navy veteran
Hi, I'm a Navy veteran who hasn't had any SOS since I left the Navy back in 1965. Thanks for posting a recipe for it.

You're welcome Max!
Cathy, I was in the Marines from Sept 1979 until April 1986. I agree with your husband about missing everything and everyone. I celebrate the MC Birthday every year by making sure I have a day off of work that day and just reminiscing. Semper Fi! Last edited by kerch; 11-18-2008 at 01:07 PM. Reason: spelling

I must confess I was most intrigued when I read the idea about a Marine for breakfast! But then I read the recipe and was set straight, so to speak! (Oh c'mon! Humor is a good thing!)
SOS is and has always been one of my all-time FAV meals- breakfast, or ANY time! It was always popular in every kitchen I ever worked in whether it be a fancy country club brunch, a backwoods rustic Alaska lodge- a logging-camp, or the North Slope oil camps of Deadhorse and Prudhoe Bay. I LOVE me some sausage gravy over biscuits! Yum!
