Home Baked Beans with Ham Hock - Breakfast at Vintaged, Hilton Brisbane + recipe + giveaway



Inspired by the current cold weather, I’m fast becoming a comfort food queen and, for me, nothing says it more than a warming cooked breakfast.

The sort of breakfast that sticks to your sides taking you through to dinner with just a few snacks along the way – okay I’m not perfect!




Hilton Executive Chef Jeremy Clark is a man who understands breakfast and the pure joys of simple food that brings back memories that warm the heart as well as the stomach.  He’s taken some tips from his days working under award-winning Sydney chef Serge Dansereau, to create a new dish crammed full of breakfast protein.

Served with a Lyonnaise sausage and two poached eggs, it’s a great way to start the day.   I particularly liked the Lyonnaise sausage as it oozed meaty flavour without any unnecessary extra garlic or flavouring.  It’s the sort of sausage that you’ll enjoy eating and not remember eating it all through the day, if you know what I mean.


The Hilton’s buffet breakfast also includes all the components for the dish so you can put it together yourself if you like.  You might be tempted to load up on those delicious beans!

If you can’t make it to the Hilton the recipe is below. Or if you'd like to try it leave a comment below and you can have one of 20 two for one vouchers I have to give away.
(RRP $76 for 2 x Complete Full Buffet Breakfast. Only pay $38.)
