So I made this today w/ some changes to the original recipe. Brian's recipe calls for the hash to be scooped into cups made out of pancetta bacon. I omitted the bacon cups and just made the hash instead. OMG, sooooooooooo good!!! The only changes I really had to make was using turkey bacon instead of regular bacon. I also just cooked my bacon in the microwave and used olive oil instead of the bacon grease to cook with.
