Ostrich Egg Fatty, knowing our number one ingredient for our recipes is imagination, some friends of ours gave us an ostrich egg to play with. It was the size of a football and much heavier. We had lots of ideas from the bizarre to just scrambling the thing with sausage and garlic or omelet’s for twenty. After a 3 hour smoke you know it had to be good. The egg and sausage both had a nice smoke flavor. Except for the egg white being a little cream colored and BIG I couldn’t tell this egg from any other. It has a great flavor and makes awesome sandwiches for days and days.
