Yield: 2 servings

Method

1
Get your English muffins ready to toast.
2
Over medium heat, fry bacon in one layer, turning often until browned and crispy to your taste. Lower the heat if the bacon fat starts to spatter.
Stovetop
3
Remove the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels. Pat the bacon with another sheet of paper towel to remove some of the excess fat.
4
Pour most of the remaining fat from the pan into a teacup, leaving most of the brown bits in the pan.
5
Wash and dry the pan, and put it back on the heat.
6
Pour about a tablespoon of the bacon fat back into the pan.
7
Start toasting the English muffins.
8
Crack eggs into the pan, add salt and pepper, and fry for about 2 minutes. Break the yolks, spreading them over the whites, and flip the eggs. Fry for another minute.
Stovetop
9
Assemble your sandwiches with the English muffins, bacon, and fried eggs. Serve.
