Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon ketchup
1/2 teaspoon chipotle in adobo sauce
2 slices sourdough bread
2 slices Cheddar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 slice bacon, halved
1 egg

Steps:

  • Combine the ketchup and chipotle and spread on the inside of each piece of bread. Place the cheese between the bread at an angle so that the edges hangover the sides of the bread. Butter the outside of one bread slice with half the butter. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Press the sandwich on, buttered-side down. Press until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has started to melt. Butter the other side (which is facing up) with the remaining butter and flip. Cook until golden brown and the cheese is gooey, this should all take 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the sandwich from the heat and hold.
  • Meanwhile, in a pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until barely crisp, about 5 minutes. Flip the bacon, pushing the two pieces next to each other to form a square. Crack the egg on top, cooking into the bacon. Continue cooking until the egg is set, about 5 minutes. Open up the sandwich (use a spoon to help pull apart the bread) and slide in the eggs and bacon. Close up, slice and enjoy.

Time 20m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup bacon drippings
6 eggs
12 slices bread
Waxed paper

Steps:

  • Heat the drippings in a wide flat-bottomed skillet until they spit and smoke. Break in the eggs. They will immediately bubble around the edges, making then crisp. Break their yolks with a fork and swirl them around, so that they are scattered fairly evenly through the whites. This will cook very quickly and the eggs should be tough. Either push them to one side of the pan or remove them, and fry bread in the drippings for each sandwich, two slices an egg. Fry on one side only. Sandwich egg between bread slices. Wrap them in waxed paper.
