What You'll Need

Required Equipment

• Spatula for stirring and flipping
• Skillet (preferably nonstick, 12-inch works best)
• Pot with lid for keeping ingredients warm

Burner Setup

• 2 burners total
• 1 for active cooking (preheat to medium heat)
• 1 for keeping cooked ingredients warm

Most Class A motorhomes and Class C RVs come equipped with multi-burner stoves that make this recipe easy to prepare.

Ingredients

This recipe serves 6-8 hungry campers. Here's what you'll need:

• 1 lb of bacon
• 1 lb of sausage links
• 32 oz bag of hash browns (frozen or fresh)
• 12 large eggs
• Cheese mix (cheddar, monterey jack, or your favorite blend)

Optional toppings: ketchup, hot sauce, or maple syrup for a sweet-and-savory twist.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Cooking the Meat

1. Cut bacon and sausage into 1-inch pieces for even cooking and easy eating.
2. Cook the meat: Stir and cook bacon and sausage in the hot skillet until thoroughly cooked, for at least 5 minutes. The bacon should be crispy and sausage browned on all sides.
3. Transfer to pot: Put bacon and sausage in the pot and cover with lid to keep warm on the second burner.

Building the Train Wreck

4. Cook hash browns: In the skillet, cook hash browns until they are crisp and golden on the outside. This usually takes 8-10 minutes.
5. Combine ingredients: Add bacon and sausage back to the skillet and stir everything together.
6. Add eggs: Mix eggs into the hash brown and meat mixture, stirring constantly.
7. Scramble thoroughly: Stir until eggs scramble in with hash browns and are cooked firm throughout, about 3-4 minutes.
8. Finish with cheese: Add cheese until melted and gooey, creating that perfect breakfast blend.

Serving suggestion: Serve with ketchup or syrup, or try it with salsa and sour cream for a southwestern twist.
