Army SOS (S--t on a Shingle) Ingredients

1 pound ground pork sausage 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
or ground beef or 50/50 mix salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons chopped onion
1/2 cup milk 1 dash Worcestershire sauce

Instructions for Army SOS (S--t on a Shingle)

This version of the popular army dish, usually made with creamed chipped beef, uses pork sausage. Just add flour, milk, onions and seasoning and you've got the favorite for serving over biscuits or toast.

Brown sausage in a large skillet; drain fat. Pour flour directly on sausage to coat (this will prevent lumps). Add milk, to desired consistency. Stir in the poultry seasoning, salt, pepper, onion and Worcestershire sauce and heat through.



Serving suggestion:
Serve this outdoors on a cold morning at 0-dark-30 AM. Take a stainless steel mess-kit tray, put a slice of toast in the bottom, a ladle of SOS on the toast and a fried egg on top. Dump 1/2 a canned peach on the side allowing the juice to run around the bottom. Sprinkle liberally w/ coarse black pepper.

Accompany this w/ a pint sized canteen cup filled w/ steaming hot coffee doctored with whole milk and raw sugar.

This is to be eaten with a large spoon while sitting on a log, step, or a steel helmet
