In a Nutshell

The Power Bowl—beef, butter, bacon, and eggs—is the #1 carnivore breakfast that helped lose 100 pounds, reverse congestive heart failure, and overcome depression after 1,000 days on the diet, eaten as one massive daily meal. Use premium grass-fed ground beef, high-quality eggs (ideally home-raised), and well-seasoned cast iron skillet: cook bacon first, add beef and scrambled eggs (whisk extra for fluff), finish with butter and electrolyte salt. Tips include preheating pan hot with tallow for non-stick eggs, sourcing clean meats like from Independence Arc Farms, and simple cast iron maintenance with beef tallow.

Revisiting the world famous Power Bowl, the number one meal on Carnivore. A big huge hearty meal consisting of four items: beef, butter, bacon, and eggs. Today adding a fifth 'B': a blizzard outside. Stuck in the house with six family members. Making the largest power bowl ever in a huge cast iron skillet: bacon, eggs, butter, ground beef.

Using the gigantic cast iron skillet (distinguishing from the baby one). Goal: heaping with beef, butter, bacon, eggs. Start with bacon.

Weather in Wisconsin: thunderstorms to snow, hail, endless snow, under blizzard advisory, all roads closed. Went to the chicken coop yesterday. Tip #1: Get the best eggs you can afford. Used cheapest grocery store eggs 99% of the time over 3 years on Carnivore. Get the best beef: using grass-fed, grass-finished ground beef from Independence Arc Farms (ships anywhere in US, friends of the channel, nice fat content, delicious). Get the best bacon; can use pork belly from Costco (super clean).

Cut bacon and put in cast iron skillet to start seasoning it. Cast iron trick for eggs: Must be well-seasoned. Use tallow to season (high smoke point, doesn't go rancid like oils). To prevent eggs sticking: get pan hot (4-5 minutes preheat; large skillet has huge heat mass). Throw in bacon (hear sizzle). Can do everything in one skillet: bacon first, pull out, then ground beef, mix with eggs. But doing ground beef simultaneously since starving.
