Ingredients
- Texas Toast or Sourdough bread
- Brioche or Challah bread
- Sharp Cheddar cheese
- American cheese or Monterey Jack cheese
- Gruyere cheese or Fontina cheese
- Quality beef bacon
- Large eggs
- Unsalted butter

Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients: Lay out all your ingredients: bread, cheese slices, beef bacon, eggs, and butter/oil.
- Cook the beef bacon: Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add your beef bacon strips to the pan in a single layer.
- Fry the egg: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Carefully crack an egg directly into the pan. Cook the egg to your preference.
- Assemble the grilled cheese: Butter one side of each slice of bread generously. Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in the same skillet.
- Grill the sandwich to golden perfection: Return the skillet with the assembled sandwich to medium-low heat. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately: Once both sides are golden and the cheese is fully melted, transfer the sandwich to a cutting board.
Notes
- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
