I can’t believe it’s already August. I feel like the year has flown by and we’re already racing towards the winter months. As sad as I am for the end of summer, one of my favorite things about fall is college football and I can’t wait to get back up to Fort Collins for some tailgating at the new Canvas Stadium.
Last summer I went to visit family in New Mexico and was introduced to cooking on a Discada. Discada’s are made from recycled plow discs that have been welded in the center. Similar to a wok, the steel provides a hot surface that is perfect for cooking a wide variety of items, making it the ideal tool for a supreme tailgate.
I am so excited to introduce you to my new favorite way to tailgate, cooking on a Discada from Carolina Cooker. My set up is a 12 inch stand with a 22 inch discada. If you’d like something a bit taller, they also have a 22 inch stand available but I really love the portability of the 12 inch stand. For the next few weeks I’ll be sharing a few of my favorite tailgate recipes that you can whip up in a discada and impress the whole crew this season.
I put this recipe together before starting Whole30 so don’t get excited thinking I gave up so quickly.
Tailgate Breakfast Tacos
We all know tailgating in the morning is hard. You have to get up early, find parking and then start cooking. I am the kind of person who needs to have a real breakfast as the first meal of the day, so breakfast tacos are the perfect solution for early kick off times.
Start off by heating the discada on a medium flame. You want it warm enough to be able to easily saute the sausage but not so hot things start to burn.
Brown the sausage in the middle of the pan. Once the sausage is fully cooked, add the onions. Allow the onions to cook in the drippings from the sausage.
Add the bell peppers.
Once all the veggies are fully cooked it’s time to add in the eggs. If you wanted to use a bowl to scramble ahead of time you could but I prefer to make less mess while tailgating and scramble directly in the discada.
Season to taste with Carolina Cajun Seasoning.
Once the eggs are fully cooked, warm the tortillas on the edge of the pan. Top with salsa, cheese and your favorite toppings and head on into the game!
