Allow time for the fire to burn to hot coals before cooking. Remove approximately half of the coals and set aside in a metal bucket.
Fry and crumble sausage in a 12″ Lodge Camp Dutch Oven, over a full bed of hot coals. Remove cooked sausage and place on paper towels. Using the sausage drippings in the pan, brown potatoes, and spread evenly in bottom of Dutch Oven. Place cooked sausage over potatoes. Pour egg mixture over sausage layer. Sprinkle top with cheese.

Additional Tips:
1) Remember to store BIO BLOCKS in a dry location. Compressed sawdust blocks and rain are not a good combination!
2) Kindling, or fire starters, are needed to light a BIO BLOCK fire. BIO BLOCKS are a great alternative to firewood, or charcoal, but are not fire starters!
3) If you are heading out to a campground, grab several packs of BIO BLOCKS at your local store. Each pack is 5″ high x 11″ wide x 12″ deep. They are flat and easy to stack in an RV. Taking BIO BLOCKS with you, means never needing to purchase wet, expense wood at your destination!
