Goetta Monkey Bread

1 cup milk

1 package Country Gravy Mix

1/4 cup melted butter

2 cans refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

2 1/4 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

1-pound Glier’s Goetta, cooked and drained

Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix milk, gravy mix, and melted butter with a whisk in a large bowl. Reserve 3/4 cup of the gravy mixture; set aside.

Cut biscuits into quarters. Add biscuit pieces to gravy mixture in a large bowl; mix until all pieces are covered. Stir in 1 3/4 cups of the cheese and cooked Goetta until well blended. Place biscuit mixture into a greased bundt pan. Pour reserved gravy mixture over top.

Bake 35 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Cool in pan 5 to 10 minutes. To unmold, loosen sides of monkey bread from the pan with a knife. Place a plate on top of the pan then carefully flip the pan onto the plate. Remove the pan, place a second plate on top of the bread and flip again to leave the bread cheesy side up. Serve warm and share with friends and family.

Goetta Cheddar Waffles

1lb. Glier’s Goetta

2 Cups All-Purpose Flour

3tsp. Baking Powder

2tsp. Salt

2 Large Eggs

1 Stick Unsalted Butter (melted)

2 Cups Milk

2-2 ½ Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Preheat your waffle iron. Brown Goetta, then place on a paper towel-lined plate to get rid of excess grease. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together eggs, butter, and milk in a separate bowl. Add the cheddar cheese, once all the wet ingredients are well mixed. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix slightly, over-mixing the batter will lead to dense waffles. Add the Goetta to the batter, then mix until it is fully incorporated. Grease the preheated waffle iron. Pour batter onto the hot iron, spread until it has reached the edges of the iron. Close and cook for 4-5 minutes. Check to make sure the waffles are golden brown. Get creative with this tasty and versatile treat. Try serving them with eggs, gravy, fried chicken, or even make them into sandwiches.

Goetta Pie

4-6 eggs

1/2 or more Goetta

Salt/pepper

Teflon pan w/ lid

A Breakfast meal, served with toast, juice and or coffee.

This is a simple, easy to prepare all-in-one breakfast that will absolutely please every one that has ever tasted and fallen in love with Glier’s Goetta; regular or hot!

First, use a Teflon frying pan that has a lid (we’ll use the lid when the eggs go in)…. put 1/2 lb or more Goetta in pay and spread around like a giant pancake…completely covering the flat portion of the pan.

Now, with the cover off, cook the Goetta half way (around 10 minutes on low-medium heat…just enough to get the bubbles and heat coming thru the top of the goetta.

Now, add your eggs… about 2 per person or 6 for every 1/2 lb of Goetta.

I like to just crack them and drop them in and adjust the yellow (unbroken) yokes evenly around the pan. Some like scrambling them in a bowl and pour the mixture in over the top of the goetta layer. Your choice!

Now, with the eggs covering the goetta, salt and season to taste and cook with the cover on (this will cook the eggs on top)…. check every 3 or 5 minutes until the eggs are cooked to your liking.

When done, just loosen the edges with a fork or knife and slip the pie onto a plate for cutting and serving….yum!
