Mini-Wok Egg Foo Young on the Mini-Egg

 Thanks to our friends, Darian and Lora, we have a Mini Big Green Egg.  We had one for years but gave it to those who bought our house in Texas.  We missed, and now we are trying to catch up on what we missed for the past seven years.  This is what I posted on Facebook this morning.

The Mini Big Green Egg is a favorite to cook on among the various size Big Green Eggs. A few years ago it was so popular that I collected photos of what our Egghead friends were cooking on theirs. It didn't take long before I created seven video-slide-shows with over 100 images each of what some really creative people can cook on their Mini Egg.
But for now, I'll just show what I cooked for dinner last night.
Sweetie said she didn't want anything, so that gave me license to do what I wanted with whatever I could find to cook. But whatever it was going to be had to be cooked in the Mini-Wok and on the Mini Big Green Egg.
Within minutes I had cabbage, Jalapenos and bell peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, green onions, and roughly chopped Jimmy Dean smoked sausage being briefly steamed while the Mini Egg was warming up.
By the time the oil was hot; the steamed stuff was stirred into a couple of well-scrambled eggs and stirred into slurry ready to fry in very hot oil.
It went well, and when I covered the stack of Egg Foo Young with some heated Pork Gravy, I knew it would be good.
It was delicious, and I asked Sweetie if she wanted to try it. She did, and came back for more, saying, “You can cook that again anytime.” And I will.
I took some pictures.







Thank you Darian and Lora.
