I'm going to be using a fresh sourdough bread for it, bacon, butter. Should I also use Worcestershire sauce? I feel like I need to jazz it up from the basic bread/butter/bacon thing. Thoughts? Although sourdough is great bread, and a bacon sandwich with Worcester sauce (and fried mushrooms) is a thing of wonder, I wouldn't do it in a commercial setting. The texture of sourdough means that fat, butter (if you use it, I'm in the "no" camp) and especially Worcester sauce, will fall through the holes. Big mess, all over the customers. I would go with a closer-textured bread like granary. Or else do the sourdough thing, with loads of napkins and washing facilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using a locally made brown sauce that is thicker than W'shire. I'm grilling the sourdough, plopping the bacon on, then drizzling melted butter all over the bacon. Then drizzling sauce over that. In a little sandwich basket with potato chips. Mushrooms would be excellent. Edited December 16, 2019 by maqroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like making an American hot dog with toasted bagels. Soft, fresh bread, good bacon, optional butter, optional brown sauce or ketchup (catsup) or mustard. Fried egg or mushrooms as an add on. Strong tea. Sorted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once arrived in a Chinese takeaway and asked just for a carton of rice. Explained I was making a Chinese meal and had forgotten to put the rice on in time so this was my emergency solution. They were very excited, very impressed, asked what Chinese meal I was preparing. 'curry, rice and chips' Conversation ended right about there. 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? my thought. Choose the cheapest most generic medium sliced pan loaf pre-sliced bread, room temp salted proper butter (used sparingly) and max two layers of streaky bacon (cooked til just starting to crisp up). Brown or ketchup as the condiment choice (cant dictate these things, we live in a democracy). Personally I ditch the condiment and just have a soft fried egg on my plate to dip into. love a dippy egg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 why 2 layers? I went through a stage of my Friday morning sandwich being bacon with extra bacon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 There is something special about crusty white bread, and bacon, the more bacon the better. Red sauce maybe. But if going for a treat, crusty white bread, 2 rashers of bacon, chicken breast (pan fried no oil) and then another 2 rashers of bacon top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterms Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 My favorite is granary bread, sliced thick, with loads of worcester sauce, no butter (pah!), smoked back bacon, grilled, sometimes with either mushrooms quickly fried in extra virgin olive oil, or else fried egg also in EVOO. Sometimes I will turn the egg over, briefly, to reduce the leakage while also leaving it still moist in the yolk. And strong coffee. Tea is an abomination. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterms Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Did a buffet for the Greens, about 100 people expected, fewer showed up due to post-election depression. Had some help prepping. Mostly vegan because, well, Greens. Goats cheese tarts with spiced onion, falafel, dolmades, Greek mushrooms, potato salad, hummus, squash and sweet potato dip with green salsa, feta and red pepper dip, butterbean mash with muharamma, tabbouleh, crushed courgettes, green beans in tomato sauce, root veg salad, apple and celeriac salad, foccaccia, pitta bread, flatbread with za'ataar, quince aioli, harissa, tahini lemon sauce, pickles. Bit knackered after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve discovered a whole host of tasty food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) Sriracha has become the sauce of choice with eggs here, but brown still rules breakfast. Edited December 19, 2019 by Xann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
