Step 1
Slice tomatoes into 0.25-inch rounds. Pat dry. Mix cornmeal with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp pepper in a shallow bowl.
Step 2
Stir mayo, pickle relish, and lemon juice in a small bowl until smooth. Set remoulade aside.
Step 3
Heat 0.25 inch neutral oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Dredge tomato rounds in cornmeal, shaking off excess. Fry in batches without crowding until deep golden and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 5
In the same skillet, cook sausage patties over medium-high until cooked through and browned, about 3 minutes per side. Push to the edge.
Step 6
Crack eggs into the skillet, spacing them around the sausage. Cook until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 7
On each plate, layer fried tomato, remoulade, sausage, tomato, remoulade, then top with fried egg. Serve with pickles on the side.
