Recipe by Chef Jean

This is a southern dish that I serve with breakfast or brunch. Cut the bread and onion the night before to save some time in the morning. This recipe makes enough to serve a large group, but is easy to scale down. The can of tomatoes wouldn't come up on the recipe, but I use a #10 can, 6lbs, 6oz, the largest one there is.

1

lb butter
1

lb brown sugar
1

(102 ounce) can whole canned tomatoes, drained (#10 can, 6lb, 6oz)

DIRECTIONS

Crush the tomatoes into bite sized pieces. ( I leave them in the stainer and squeeze by hand until they are broken up to small enough pieces.).
Melt the butter in a large sauce pan, then add the onions, cook until softened.
Stir in the remaining ingredients and transfer to a large baking dish. (I use a half hotel pan.).
Cover with aluminium foil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Let cool for about 1 0minutes before serving.
