I'm quite fond of breakfast meats, like bacon & sausage. However, one must tread cautiously; any bacon that boasts itself as microwaveable should never be consumed. Also, none of this Turkacon. Bacon should be thick, a little fatty and be cooked with both crispy and not-so-crispy elements. Sausage is a switch hitter though, tasty in both link and pattie forms (and otherworldly when added to gravy). Not only are bacon & sausage delicious, but they serve as a great alternative sopper if you don't have a biscuit, toast or some other more traditional sopping side.
What other breakfast meats are there?
For one, there's the mysterious & legendary loaf called Scrapple.
There's also this guy, which can be tasty when it's fried a little and eaten with over-easy eggs.
Of course you can't forget this heart stopper.
And an also very course-versatile meat, eaten alone, on biscuits, or soaked in egg yolk...the forever salty country ham.
UPDATE: I forgot two major players...
S.O.S. as we referred to it, shit on a shingle, ala cream chipped beef.
And... the mighty, mighty, Corn Beef Haaaaaaaaaaaaa....sh.

Wow, chipped beef! A major player in my childhood, though I haven't seen her in quite sometime.
! I never saw corned beef hash until one morning on jay's plate in a west end aparment outside of the Fan in Richmond. What was that street? It blew me away and was the beginning of a love affair. We still fuck.
Haha... Grove Ave, across the school. I haven't had Corned Beef Hash in a while. It's kind of difficult to cook just right. Emily makes the Cream Chipped Beef sometimes, we'll have to have you over Matt! Basically any breakfast meat that has three words in it... is bonafied.
j, i see your face in every piece of soggy toast before me.
