How to cook bacon, sausage, crispy hash browns, fluffy pancakes, and eggs on the Blackstone griddle — all without making a hot mess. Cooking a full Blackstone breakfast sounds easy until the bacon is burning, the pancakes are raw in the middle, the eggs are turning black, and everything else is getting cold.

Cooking a full Blackstone breakfast sounds easy - until the bacon is burning, the pancakes are raw in the middle, the eggs are turning black, and everything else is getting cold. The good news is that cooking bacon, sausage, crispy hash browns, pancakes, and eggs together on a Blackstone griddle is not hard. You just need a game plan, the right cooking order, and a few different heat zones.

Ingredients

  • •8-12 strips bacon
  • •1 pound breakfast sausage
  • •1 carton dehydrated hash browns
  • •Avocado oil, bacon grease, or clarified butter
  • •2 cups pancake mix
  • •Water or milk according to the pancake mix directions
  • •6-8 large eggs
  • •A splash of half-and-half, milk, or heavy cream
  • •2 tablespoons butter
  • •Heifer Dust or your favorite all-purpose seasoning
  • •Salt and pepper
  • •Syrup, butter, and hot sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the Blackstone griddle on low. Prepare the dehydrated hash browns with hot water and allow them to sit for about 10 minutes.
  2. 2Place the bacon on a low-temperature section of the griddle, around 200°F. Add the sausage patties and cook both slowly, flipping as needed.
  3. 3Heat another section to approximately 350°F. Add a generous amount of avocado oil or bacon grease and spread the hash browns into an even layer. Add a little more oil over the top and leave them alone for about 10 minutes.
  4. 4Once the bacon and sausage are cooked, transfer them to a wire rack positioned over a cooler section of the griddle.
  5. 5Mix the pancake batter slightly thicker than the package directions and let it rest for several minutes.
  6. 6Flip the hash browns once a golden crust has developed. Season and continue cooking until crispy outside and tender inside.
  7. 7Scrape and clean an open section of the griddle. Cook the pancakes around 350°F, flipping when bubbles form and the bottoms are golden brown.
  8. 8Move the pancakes to the warming rack. Clean the egg-cooking area and lower it to approximately 250-300°F.
  9. 9Add fresh butter and cook the scrambled eggs gently, folding until soft and fluffy.
  10. 10Cook the remaining eggs to your preferred doneness. Serve everything hot with butter, syrup, and hot sauce.

Hussey's Egg-Griddle Tips

  • ▸Start your Blackstone griddle on low and give it time to preheat. Bacon does especially well around 200°F.
  • ▸Cook in the right order: bacon and sausage first, then hash browns, pancakes, and finally the eggs.
  • ▸Pay attention to the grease flow — every Blackstone has a slight lean toward the grease trap.
  • ▸Use heat zones: a hotter zone for hash browns and pancakes, a lower zone for bacon and eggs, and a cooler area for holding finished food.
  • ▸Clean the griddle as you go. Before cooking pancakes or eggs, scrape away the leftover bits and grease.
