Bacon Smashburger Breakfast Sandwich

🍳 The Smashburger Breakfast Sandwich That Rules Them All

Mornings were made for meat. And this isn’t your average breakfast sandwich.

We took Old Major’s legendary 50/50 Bacon Smashburgers — a glorious blend of pasture-raised beef and real smoked bacon — and dropped them right into the breakfast hall of fame. The result? A crispy-edged, flavor-packed patty that doesn’t play backup to any egg or bun. It takes the lead.

This sandwich hits with rich, smoky fat from the bacon, a juicy beefy bite, molten cheese, and a perfectly fried egg that brings the whole thing together. Serve it on a butter-toasted English muffin or biscuit and drizzle with hot honey for the kind of breakfast that turns heads and ruins all others.

Whether you’re fueling up for a weekend hike or just need something worthy of your Saturday morning appetite, this beast is your go-to.


 

🔥 INGREDIENTS (Makes 2 sandwiches)

  • 2 Old Major 50/50 Bacon Smashburger patties

  • 2 English muffins or biscuits, toasted and buttered

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 slices sharp white cheddar or havarti

  • Handful of baby arugula or spinach (optional, for peppery balance)

  • Hot honey, to drizzle (or sub maple syrup for sweetness)

  • Butter or oil, for cooking


 

🔪 INSTRUCTIONS

 

1. Smash & Sizzle

Heat a cast iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the frozen or thawed 50/50 patties directly onto the hot surface. Smash them down with a sturdy spatula or burger press. Cook until the edges are crispy and caramelized, about 2–3 minutes per side.


2. Get Cheesy

Right before the patties finish cooking, add your cheese slices. Cover with a lid or foil to help it melt fast and gooey.


3. Fry the Eggs

In another skillet, add butter or oil and fry the eggs sunny-side-up or over-easy. You want that yolk golden and just runny enough to make things glorious.


4. Build the Sandwich

Layer the bottom half of your toasted muffin with greens (optional), followed by the cheesy smash patty, the fried egg, and a drizzle of hot honey. Cap it off with the top bun.


5. Devour Immediately

This sandwich waits for no one. Grab it with two hands and go to work.
