4 slices cooked bacon, diced
4 ounces shredded Cheddar
3 cups frozen hash browns, thawed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
Directions
Special equipment:
a square cast-iron pie iron- Prepare a campfire or a charcoal grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Add a square cast-iron pie iron to the campfire or grill to preheat.
- Lightly beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the bacon, Cheddar, hash browns, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss together until everything is equally distributed. Carefully remove the pie iron from the fire. Open the iron and add 2 tablespoons butter, then swirl it around both sides. Add a quarter of the potato mixture to the pie iron and close it. Place the iron back in the fire and cook for 2 minutes, turning and rotating every few seconds. Remove the iron from the fire and transfer the potato pocket to a plate.
