Spicy sausage burger with bacon and eggs
In week three I decided to play with some classic breakfast foods. I took some spicy sausage patties and mixed them with regular beef and added in a cracked egg to act as a binder. Then I hand formed a burger with the mixed spicy Italian sausage and the beef burger. It was pouring raining out so this had to be an indoor burger. I used my cast iron grill pan to sear the burger with a little butter on both sides while the thick cut bacon was in the oven on the racks. After a quick sear on both sides and the American cheese I put the pan in the oven with the bacon at 400 degrees. Then I went to work on my fried egg. With a little salt and pepper I fried the egg over easy so the yolk was still slightly wet. When all was said and done I took the sausage burger covered with melted American cheese out of the oven and put it on top of a sliced kaiser bun. Then I topped with two pieces of bacon, the fried egg, and a little ketchup to complete my breakfast burger. When I sliced the burger in half the yolk from the egg dripped down onto the rest of the burger creating a very breakfasty sandwich with a little kick from the spicy burger patty. The only thing I wish I had thought of was to add a little hot sauce into the ketchup. Overall the burger had great flavor and textures. Week three was a success. Looking forward to next week's burger.
