How to Make Back Yard Barbecued Breakfast

  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  2. Prepare the foil packet: Spray a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil (approximately 18x18 inches) with non-stick cooking spray. Add 1 tablespoon of butter.
  3. Prep the ingredients: Open one 32-ounce bag of frozen hash browns. In a bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs. Finely chop 1/2 medium onion.
  4. Combine ingredients: Add the hash browns, eggs, and chopped onion to the prepared foil packet. Gently mix everything together by squeezing and tossing within the foil.
  5. Season and add sausage: Add 1 pound of your favorite breakfast sausage (removed from casings), 1 teaspoon of seasoning salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to the mixture. Add 1 more tablespoon of butter on top.
  6. Seal and Grill: Fold the foil over to create a sealed packet, crimping the edges to prevent leaks. Place the packet on the preheated grill. Cook for 20-25 minutes, turning the packet every 5 minutes, until the hash browns are golden brown and the eggs are cooked through. The bag will puff up as it cooks.
  7. Serve: Carefully remove the foil packet from the grill (use tongs to avoid burns). Let it cool slightly before opening and serving. Enjoy your delicious backyard BBQ breakfast!
