Cowboy Potatoes are sometimes called Country Potatoes. I use the two names interchangeably. They are kicked up Home Fries. Cowboy Potatoes, are a favorite, of my husband. He orders these, when we go out for breakfast. I don’t make Cowboy Potatoes often, but I’m always happy when I do. The trick to this recipe, is to let the potatoes have contact with the skillet, a few minutes so that they can brown. There is no stirring. Just flip the potatoes when they brown. Continue the browning process, until they are as brown as you like them. Add oil just before you flip, each time. This keeps the potatoes, soft.

Serve with Biscuits And Sausage Gravy, or Chicken In The Pigpen!
