Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound ground hot pork sausage
  • 1 (16 oz) frozen country style hash brown shredded potatoes half of a 32 oz bag
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 (5 oz) can evaporated milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Get your coals ready for cooking. Whether you are using campfire coals or charcoal briquettes, you’ll be baking this breakfast at 350 degrees F.
  • Brown the sausage in a 10-inch Dutch oven over medium heat, breaking up the sausage as it cooks.
  • Stir the potatoes into the pot and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until they are softened. (This assumes the hash browns are being cooked from frozen, if they are defrosted this will only take a few minutes.)
  • Beat the eggs in a bowl then stir in the milk, salt, pepper, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce and cheddar cheese.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the Dutch oven and stir till all the ingredients are combined.
  • Cover the Dutch oven and bake at 350 F degrees (21 total coals: 14 top/7 bottom) until the eggs are set, approximately 20-30 minutes. (see Note 1)
  • Let stand a few minutes before slicing, serve hot.
