Eggs and Bacon Another Way ~1808

This recipe is essentially deviled eggs served on bacon and smothered in gravy. My arteries just hardened a bit.

If you were working hard all day on the farm in sub-zero weather, though, I could see where this would fill in all the nooks and crannies!

I would probably pair this with black coffee or tea.

Note: Cullis is a strong meat broth, or drippings from dressed meat.
