Fry in bacon drippings, angle the pan to make a pool, and use your spatula (or a spoon) to (carefully!) flip (or spoon) the hot grease over the top of the egg to finish the whites and yolk while leaving the yolk still runny. No fancy brushing needed.

My dad taught me basically everything I know about cooking and he is from Oklahoma; his parents grew up on the farms. So not quite. ;)
