Reese universal towbar $100 plus Readybreak with breakaway $500. Works great.

Well I learned something today, didn't know there was such a thing as Readybreak! Looks like a good system, did you get the break away kit also?

For another few hundred bucks you can get the Ready Brute tow bar with the brake built in. Aluminium #8000 rated tow bar. Easy to use, easy to store. I wold also recommend the break away device. Cheap insurance, and most likely will never need it.

you asked about easy, rather than cheapest?

A motorhome mounted towbar is always easiest I think.
I use a blue ox alladin, which I found on craigslist for about $350.

For our older wranglers, Blue ox makes bumper mount towbar brackets for $52.
I have a rockcrawler bumper on mine, it's 1/4" thick steel, holds those brackets great.
