Burgers aren’t just for lunch and dinner. A breakfast burger, served with a top and bottom bun, open-face or sans bread, is the perfect way to start the day. They can be made in mass, so they are also great for entertaining and brunch.
Ingredients
- 2 raw burger patties
- 2 brioche buns
- 4 slices white cheddar cheese
- 2 thick cut strips bacon , cooked and cut in half
- 1/3 cup arugula , packed
- 2 eggs
- coarse sea salt & freshly ground pepper
Directions
- Place the frozen burger directly on a preheated grill (350°F on indirect heat) or skillet (medium heat).
- Wait for the juices to rise to the top without moving the burger around and do NOT press on it with a spatula, approximately 4 to 6 minutes. Browning is a good thing, it helps to develop natural flavors!
- Flip the patty and cook for another 4 to 6 minutes or until your desired doneness.
- Allow the burger to rest while you use the same hot skillet to fry an egg. Top the skillet with a lid of piece of aluminum foil to get the perfect sunny side up fried egg.
- Assemble the burger by placing 2 slices of white cheddar on the bottom bun, top liberally with fresh arugula, then your BUBBA burger, bacon and finally the egg. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Enjoy open-faced or top with the other half of the bun.
