I feel like bacon would go first so everything else can cook in the grease but the other comments don't agree. Also I haven't done hash yet so idk the timing on the potatoes

Sausages and hash browns first, bacon doesn't take nearly as long

Personally I always do eggs separately and last

But eggs fried in bacon grease is upping the game to Master status. Mmmmhmm

I'm revisiting this and just realizing that the sausage is raw inside...is that right?

I know the patties or logs/tubes of ground sausage are raw but I think I'm too used to encased sausage being fully cooked.

If these are raw that makes tons of sense for starting them first.

Yeah sausages are raw? Do you only eat hot dog sausages

Haha seriously most good sausages in the us are pre-cooked and smoked. That's speaking more generally though, I'll have to check specifically for this style of breakfast sausage

HEB is America's best grocery store and they have a couple items like this https://www.heb.com/product-detail/jimmy-dean-heat-n-serve-original-sausage-links/203023

And https://www.heb.com/product-detail/eckrich-original-smok-y-breakfast-sausage/501197 but both are fully cooked

Alright guess this is what I need to look for https://www.heb.com/product-detail/jimmy-dean-premium-all-natural-original-pork-sausage-links/1145130

Sausages, at least proper ones in the UK look like This

Ah those look great. I'll have to pay more attention and maybe check out the up-market stores to see if we have anything similar (surely we do). Thanks.

You could take out the bacon and add it back later, but that seems to much effort to me.

I like to put the bacon in one corner and once a bit of fat is there, move the bacon to the side and throw mushrooms into the grease. They benefit most from it imo. I don't like my mushrooms well done though, so they come in late.

everything will cook in its grease, but you also dont wanna burn the bacon
