Scalloped Potatoes Texas Style

My Mamaw used to make scalloped potatoes for breakfast all the time when we’d vist her in New Boston, TX. Granted I hopped them up up a bit with bacon and jalapenos. While cooking we’re looking for crispy brown crust forming on the potatoes.

  • Lay bacon in pan and cook it.
  • While bacon cooks take a potato peeler and deskin it.
  • With your mandolin shave the potato in a med. large bowl. No mandolin? Cut the potato as thin as possible.
  • Add to the bowl: chopped onion, chopped jalapeno, salt. Olive oil, and Dawgs Bark.
  • Mix the potatoes so the slices are covered evenly with the above.
  • When bacon is done remove them leaving the grease in pan and set aside.
  • Turn pan down to medium low. 250° to 324°
  • Add contents of bowl to the pan and spread evenly.
  • Let cook for 15 minutes.
  • Flip as best you can trying to get a full side of potatoes on heat that haven't been.

  • We are looking for a lot of browning or a little depending on your taste.

Hay yall! Don’t be afraid to adjust or substitute ingredients to your taste. These recipes didn’t come from a written measured recipe. They are made, noted, measured on the fly, then pumped up here when time permits and most importantly only if they tasted good.

If you don’t have any Texas Butter I guess we’ll overlook it if you use what’s in your pantry. Be sure to ask how something turned out or you have questions.
