Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and lay the bacon out on the foil.

Preheat the oven to 400°F and bake the bacon for about 10 minutes.

Take the bacon out, flip it over, and put it back in the oven for another 10 minutes.

Remove the bacon from the oven and place it in a pan lined with paper towels to soak up the grease.

Cook link sausages on a grill that cooks both sides at the same time, closing the lid and turning it on until it beeps and the blue light turns green.

Cook sausage patties in the same manner as the link sausages.

Cut about half a bag of potatoes into cubes and place them in a pan with enough vegetable oil to create a high boil.

Cook the potatoes on medium high for about 10 to 15 minutes until they start to brown.

Add sliced peppers and onions to the potatoes, mixing them in with the oil, and continue to cook for another 5 to 10 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

Prepare French toast by setting a griddle to 350°F and adding fat to the grill.

Soak Texas toast bread in beaten eggs and lay it on the grill.

Sprinkle sugar on top of the French toast before flipping it over.

Remove the French toast from the grill once cooked.

Scramble eggs in a pan with butter on medium high heat, waiting for the butter to bubble before pouring in the eggs.

Let the eggs set a little before seasoning with salt and pepper, and continue to scramble until they start to solidify.

Turn off the heat when the eggs look slightly runny, as they will continue to cook off the heat.
