NoBozo...

I feel your pain! I too cook breakfast all the time and find
my homefries, while quite good, fall short of *some* of the
lakes region restaurants. Although I must say that many area
restaurants are woefully lacking in the home fry department
(and don't even get me started on places that serve canned
corned beef hash!).

I believe the secret to great homefries are threefold:

1) Crispiness.... time on the grill counts.
2) Seasoning.... salt, pepper, garlic, paprika etc... bonus
points for added bits of veggies.. onion
and green peppers for example.

And finally... and most importantly....

3) GREASE!! Bacon, Sausage, and (homemade) corned
beef residue on a well seasoned grilltop
puts homefries over the top!

Extra bonus points for tossing a pat of real butter into the
mix at some point!

Gracious apologies to the Cardiologists who frequent these
forums!

Cheers....
