Brunch Burger

Yesterday I made:
Brunch Burgers, Every Day with Rachael Ray March 2014


Rachael Ray always has a burger of the month, but I almost never make them. This one looked complicated but decadent, so we decided to go for it. It's a pork (and supposed to be 1/2 beef too, but ours went bad) patty seasoned with fennel, garlic, onion, and sage, topped with cheese, a fried egg, and some maple-sugar bacon. All on an English muffin bun. It was so tall it was hard to eat!
The bacon was really good-- it was smothered in brown sugar and maple syrup before baking. The pork patty was fine, but nothing too special. G observed that if you just bought normal sausage patties and used the maple-flavored bacon, you could do this really easily. So easily in fact, you could do it any time. Ha! Until you ODed on cholesterol and saturated fat. Anyway, this was really good, and it was so fun to have leftovers this morning to just heat up and assemble.

Speaking of breakfast sandwiches, I think this is a really cool contraption:
Make sure to watch the video on Amazon! 

Obviously, it's one of those things you would probably just use twice and then never look at again because it was too hard to clean or whatever, but isn't it such a good idea? I love it, along with those toasters with built in skillets and coffee makers.
