2 Grill Prep
Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Original Charcoal Briquets
Method: Two-Zone Method
Temp: 375°–400°F (Medium Heat)
Carefully hold your hand about 5” to 6” above the grate, and refer to the temperature settings below:
• High Heat (450° to 550°F):
2 to 4 seconds
• Medium Heat (350° to 450°F):
5 to 6 seconds
• Low Heat (250° to 350°F):
8 to 10 seconds
Make sure your clothing doesn’t touch the grate, and always move your hand away from the heat before you feel discomfort.
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.
3 The 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.
