Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread
- 4 slices of bacon
- 2 eggs
- 2 slices of cheese
- Butter for grilling
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by laying out all components: bread slices, bacon, eggs, cheese, butter, and seasoning.
- Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy and golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
- In the same skillet, crack eggs and cook sunny-side up or over-easy, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until egg whites are set but yolks remain slightly runny.
- Butter one side of each bread slice generously, ensuring complete coverage for even grilling.
- Place one bread slice butter-side down in a clean skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Layer the sandwich by adding one slice of cheese, cooked bacon strips, and the prepared egg on the bread slice.
- Top with another slice of cheese and cover with the second bread slice, butter-side up.
- Grill the sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until bread turns golden brown and cheese melts completely.
- Remove from heat, let cool for 1-2 minutes, then slice diagonally and serve immediately.
Tips
- • Always use room temperature butter for the most even and golden grilling results • Choose thick-cut bacon for maximum flavor and crispiness • Make sure your skillet is at medium heat to prevent burning • Press the sandwich gently while grilling to ensure even melting and crispy exterior • For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of herbs • Use a non-stick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan for the best grilling experience • Let the sandwich rest for a minute after cooking to allow cheese to set and flavors to meld • Experiment with different cheese types like sharp cheddar or pepper jack for variety
