Egg Caulking Gun
To go with big bacon.

Eggs, interleaved with little rice paper cups, could be loaded into a 3in diameter caulking gun. Give the trigger a few squeezes and you have a few eggs on the griller, held in shape with a rice paper cup.

Beating the eggs means the rice paper breaks up. 500 eggs to a tube (Yep, these are big tubes.) They can be loaded into smaller tubes, depending upon needs, a bit like breaking down ammunitions belts into clips and magazines. Keeping them at the right temperature means they'll be quite viscous, and easy to manage.

       I am seriously getting hungry for eggs and bacon

DeathNinja, Sep 10 2003
  

       Recipe:
Ingredients:
20 tubes of caulking eggs
100ft roll bacon
5 rolls paper towel
  

       Unroll papertowel and lay down flat on hot parking lot in Phoenix, AZ. Unroll bacon on paper towel. When bacon starts to sizzle caulk it with eggs. By the time you reach the end of the bacon the beginning should be ready to eat.

       Then we flip it onto Super Long Bread, and cut into 1-or-2 yolk rolls?

       Is there a supercharged version?

       Where do the shells go?

Cedar Park, Sep 10 2003
  

       They are washed, powdered and sold to vitamin manufacturers, for calcium supplements.

UnaBubba, Sep 10 2003
  

       More like the mayo gun at a burger joint, though it dumps an egg in a rice paper flan, with each squeeze of the trigger.

UnaBubba, Sep 11 2003
  

       "Is there a supercharged version?"   

       I hope so, would be great for food fights.

RoboBust, Sep 11 2003
  

       They're already shelled, so it could be a little less fun than you think.

       Can the Egg Caulking Gun be used for poaching . . . chickens?

FarmerJohn, Sep 11 2003
  

       I've always wondered... does curried chicken come from curried eggs?

UnaBubba, Sep 11 2003
  

       I don't get it. How are the cups and the (shelled) eggs held in the same tube without the cups going soggy? If you beat the eggs in the cup and this causes the cup to disintegrate, the egg will run through the grill. If the eggs won't run through (i.e. are hard enough to keep together) then why would you beat them? You'd end up with little pieces of egg everywhere. If this is for use on a solid griddle, why use the cups?   

       I thought the eggs were in their shells but you say not [UB]. Please explain.

       C'mon, [UB]. Give us an answer. I've got to go home in a bit.

       What came first, the egg or the gun?

FarmerJohn, Sep 11 2003
  

       [squeak], I'm on a slightly different timetable to most of you, being in Australia and all.   

       I put the eggs in the cups so we could keep them segregated into individual eggs. The cups hold them in roughly the right shape when grilling, so they can fit easily on a bun.

UnaBubba, Sep 11 2003
  

       Sounds a lot like Worldgineer's caulk thing. (link)

oxen crossing, Sep 11 2003
  

       [UB]. Take a piece of rice paper, crack an egg, place rice paper in small bowl, pour de-shelled egg on rice paper, wait ....ooooh...an hour, observe.   

       Result: soggy rice paper. Won't hold anything.
