What’s up everyone. Happy Memorial Day. So I planned on hitting the grill with this awesome weather. Then I saw Karl over at Twin Moons Tavern made a great burger (you can check it out here – https://youtu.be/evLaL5zaqSM ) so I thought to myself that’s what I need an over the top burger! So with that I present to you the Ultimate Breakfast Burger! Any burger with an egg on top is always a winner, and this egg is cooked so perfectly it runs all over. There was about 10 minutes of footage of me eating lol, I couldn’t tear myself away from the burger to stop the cameras lol. Anyway you guys will love this one too, so when you do make this one make sure to take a pic and post it to my Facebook page!

Ultimate Breakfast Burger Recipe
Ingredients
Bacon Jam:
- 1-1/2 lb. Bacon Chopped
- 1 Cup Onion Chopped
- 2 Cups Shallots Chopped
- 4 Garlic Cloves Minced
- 1 tsp. Chili Powder
- 1/2 tsp. Paprika
- 1/2 Cup Bourbon
- 1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
- 1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
- 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
Burgers:
- 1 lb. Ground Beef
- 4 Eggs
- 8 Bacon Slices cooked
- 4 Hash Brown Patties cooked
- 4 Cheddar Cheese Slices
- 4 Brioche Buns
Instructions
Bacon Jam:
- Chop and cook the bacon in two frying pans to allow for room for it to crisp up properly. Cook over medium heat until it browns perfectly. You want the bacon a little crisper with as little visible fat as possible. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess fat off.
- Leave about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the fat in one of the pan. Add chopped shallot and onion to the pan, cook over medium heat until they start to caramelize. Add the garlic and cook for about one more minute.
- Add the chili powder and smoked paprika, stir to combine.
- Increase heat to high and add the bourbon (carefully) and maple syrup. Bring to a boil, stir and scrape the pan so all the little bacon bits comes loose Continue boiling for about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add vinegar and brown sugar, continue to boil for about 3 minutes.
- Toss the bacon into the pan, reduce heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, the mixture will thicken and look jam like in the process.
- This is when I would take my burgers to the grill and have them going while my Jam is on the stove top.
- Turn off the stove top, jam will continue to thicken at this point.
Burger:
- Form ground beef into 4 equal sized patties, salt and pepper. Place on a pre-heated grill and cook burgers to desired temperature placing a slice of cheddar onto each patty and allow to cook until melted.
- In a pan skillet melt about 1 Tbsp of butter, crack your egg and add to pan, cover and allow to cook to your desired doneness.
- Place a cooked hash brown patty onto the bottom bun, top the hash brown with your burger patty, bacon jam, egg and the cooked bacon. Close with the top bun and enjoy!
