Introduction:

Start your day right with a hearty, smoky breakfast cooked on the Arteflame grill. The flat cooktop is perfect for cooking everything from eggs to bacon to pancakes, all at the same time, without any pots or pans. This breakfast is ideal for sharing and makes outdoor mornings even more enjoyable.

Ingredients

• For the Main Breakfast:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 8 slices of thick-cut bacon
  • 4 breakfast sausages
  • 4 slices of bread or English muffins
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (optional)
  • 2 tbsp butter

• Optional Add-Ons:

  • 1 cup diced potatoes
  • 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers
  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (parsley or chives)

Instructions

Step 1: Fire Up the Arteflame Grill

1. Light the Arteflame grill using vegetable oil-soaked napkins under firewood. Allow the grill to heat for about 20 minutes.
2. Identify the different heat zones on the flat cooktop:
   • High heat near the center for crisping bacon and sausages.
   • Medium heat zones for cooking eggs and toasting bread.

Step 2: Cook the Bacon and Sausages

1. Place the bacon and sausages near the center of the grill where the heat is higher.
2. Cook the bacon for 3-5 minutes per side until crispy and golden brown. Flip the sausages as needed to cook evenly, about 8-10 minutes in total.
3. Move the cooked bacon and sausages to a cooler zone to keep warm.

Step 3: Prepare the Vegetables and Potatoes (Optional)

1. If using, toss the diced potatoes, bell peppers, and mushrooms with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
2. Place them on the medium-heat zone and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender.

Step 4: Cook the Eggs

1. Melt 1 tbsp of butter on the medium-heat zone of the flat cooktop.
2. Crack the eggs directly onto the buttered surface for fried eggs or scramble them for a fluffier option.
3. For fried eggs, cook until the whites are set and the yolks are to your liking. For scrambled eggs, stir gently until cooked through.

Step 5: Toast the Bread or Muffins

1. Butter the bread slices or English muffins and place them on the flat cooktop near the medium-heat zone.
2. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

Step 6: Assemble and Serve

1. Create a breakfast platter with bacon, sausages, eggs, toast, and optional vegetables.
2. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the eggs if desired, and garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives.

Tips for Grilling Breakfast on the Arteflame

1. Use the Heat Zones: Cook items like bacon and sausages near the high-heat center and eggs or toast in the medium-heat zones.
2. Timing is Key: Start with the longest-cooking items like sausages and potatoes, then move to eggs and toast.
3. Keep It Warm: Use the outer edges of the cooktop to keep cooked items warm while you finish the rest.

Variations

1. Breakfast Tacos: Wrap scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese in grilled tortillas.
2. Vegetarian Breakfast: Replace bacon and sausages with grilled avocado halves or veggie sausages.
3. Pancake Breakfast: Use the flat cooktop to cook pancakes alongside eggs and bacon.
4. Spicy Breakfast: Add jalapeños to the vegetables or a drizzle of hot sauce over the eggs.
5. Sweet and Savory: Grill slices of pineapple or peaches as a sweet complement to the savory items.

Pairings

• Drinks: Serve with freshly brewed coffee, orange juice, or a mimosa.
• Sauces: Pair with ketchup, hot sauce, or a dollop of sour cream.
• Fruits: Include fresh fruit like berries or melon for a balanced breakfast.
