3. Dice the onion & bell pepper. In a cast iron skillet, render the bacon with the onions & peppers on medium heat.
4. Strain potatoes & throw into the cast iron skillet with the peppers & onions & a pat of butter.
5. Really mash down with the weight of another skillet, & set on medium-medium low heat until you finish cooling the rest of your breakfast, about 5-10 minutes. The bottom should form a nice crust on it.
6. Salt & pepper to taste. Add a dash of hot sauce if you like.
