Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds breakfast sausage links or bulk sausage (mild pork preferred)
  • 12 large eggs, room temperature
  • 12 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked crisp and chopped (or turkey bacon for leaner option)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 bell peppers (mixed colors), diced
  • 1 fresh jalapeño, finely chopped (optional)
  • Small bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced or diced
  • 2 medium fresh tomatoes, diced or pico de gallo
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack cheese
  • 1216 large flour tortillas, warmed before serving
  • Sour cream (optional, for serving)
  • Hot sauce or salsa (for drizzling)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil or butter, for cooking eggs and veggies

Instructions

  1. Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat (around 375°F / 190°C) and let it heat for about 5 minutes.
  2. Cook the sausage links or bulk sausage on the griddle until browned and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes for links, stirring bulk sausage occasionally. Remove and keep warm.
  3. Cook bacon strips on the griddle in a single layer for 6-8 minutes per side until crisp. Drain on paper towels and chop into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Add olive oil or butter to the griddle and sauté diced onions, bell peppers, and jalapeño (if using) for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Season with salt and pepper. Remove and set aside.
  5. Crack eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and whisk. Lower griddle heat to medium-low (around 300°F / 150°C). Add butter or oil, pour eggs onto griddle, and gently stir with a spatula until just set but still creamy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  6. Warm tortillas on the griddle for 10-15 seconds per side until pliable and lightly toasted. Keep wrapped in a clean towel to stay warm.
  7. Arrange bowls of sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs, sautéed veggies, cheeses, avocado, tomatoes, cilantro, sour cream, and hot sauce on a table or counter for a burrito bar setup. Let everyone build their own burritos.

Notes

Cook meats separately to avoid soggy veggies or eggs. Use medium to medium-high heat to develop a golden crust without burning. Scramble eggs gently on medium-low heat to keep creamy texture. Warm tortillas just enough to be pliable but not crispy. Work in batches for large crowds to keep ingredients fresh and hot.
