Roundup Breakfast.

These mighty good vittles, made in the more permanent camps of the roundups, where food supplies were not so far away, would get them cowboys up and ready to ride at first light.

2 pounds country sausage
4 potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2 inch cubes
12 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup water or milk

Brown sausage in large skillet.
Remove sausage.
Heat the pan drippings to medium high; add potatoes and fry, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes, until browned and partially cooked.
Stir potatoes to make a level layer at bottom of skillet, then add sausage on top.
In a separate dish, add water or milk to eggs and beat thoroughly.
Pour eggs over sausage evenly.
Cover and cook over medium heat until eggs are set, about 25 minutes.
Serves 6 to 8.
