We always use a cast iron skillet to make our hash brown potatoes as well as our breakfast eggs.
Tip: Because of the cheese, this recipe works best with a very well-seasoned cast iron skillet. Even though new cast iron pieces are often marketed as “pre-seasoned,” the cheese may still stick if the skillet hasn’t had time to develop additional layers of seasoning.
