3The Cook

    • When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.

    • While your coals are warming up, simmer the ingredients for the syrup on low for 5 minutes to let the ingredients combine.

    • Submerge the bread slices into the egg mixture and then prepare to grill them.

    • Grill the French toast until char marks form on one side, then flip and grill the other side. This should take about 2–3 minutes per side.

    • While grilling the French toast, grill the peaches and breakfast sausage until char marks form.

    • Turning occasionally for even browning, cook the sausage links for 6−7 minutes, until the juices run clear and the center of the links reach an internal temperature of 160°F on a digital meat thermometer.

    • Serve the grilled French toast with the grilled peaches, sausage and a nice drizzle of the maple bourbon syrup on top.
