Ingredients
- 8 slices of bread (your choice)
- 8 slices of ham
- 4 slices of cheese (cheddar or your favorite)
- 4 large eggs
- 8 slices of bacon
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Toast the Bread: In the same skillet, lightly toast the bread slices in the bacon fat or with a bit of butter/oil until golden brown. Set aside.
- Fry the Eggs: In the skillet, crack the eggs and cook to your desired doneness. Season with salt and pepper. For sunny-side up, cook until the whites are set but yolks are still runny. For over-easy, gently flip and cook for an additional minute.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: On four slices of toasted bread, layer the ham, a slice of cheese, a piece of bacon, and a fried egg. Top with another slice of toasted bread.
- Melt the Cheese: If desired, place the assembled sandwiches back in the skillet for a minute to allow the cheese to melt slightly.
- Serve: Cut the sandwiches in half and serve warm with your favorite condiments or sides.
