L'invention concerne des procédés et des dispositifs pour la production en série de produits d'oeufs cuits, refroidis, ayant l'aspect d'oeufs poêlés. Un dispositif comprend une section pour positionner les oeufs entiers intacts en coquille, positionnés latéralement transversalement et au-dessus d'un transporteur de matrice de cuisson et une section pour craqueler les coquilles d'oeufs et déposer les oeufs dans les matrices de cuisson sur le transporteur. Selon certains dispositifs et procédés, il est prévu un séparateur de jaune d'oeuf pour séparer le sac vitellin et déposer un oeuf entier à sac vitellin rompu dans chaque matrice. Selon d'autres dispositifs et procédés, il est prévu des matrices pour oeufs de formes irrégulières pour obtenir un oeuf cuit produit en série présentant des contours et/ou surfaces d'aspect naturel et de forme irrégulière. Des dispositifs et des procédés selon l'invention peuvent être utilisés pour produire des produits d'oeufs cuits, de forme détourée et irrégulière, y compris des oeufs entiers, des oeufs formulés ou des oeufs produits à partir de mélanges d'oeufs brouillés. Les oeufs précuits peuvent être fournis exempts d'agents pathogène à des établissements de restauration rapide et être réchauffés pour des consommateurs, en moins de temps qu'il ne le faut pour cuire un oeuf.
