Ultimate bacon sandwich?

68 replies

I've just made the perfect bacon roll.

  • Buttered, hot ciabatta roll cut and lightly toasted under the grill.
  • Quality bacon perfectly cooked (not burnt but fat crispy)
  • Mayonnaise and ketchup.

Fucking hell that was good.

Warburtons Toastie bread (or Thickest, in the green packet, if I’m feeling decadent!)

Smoked back bacon, cooked until the fat is crispy

Salted butter

Brown sauce

Perfection!

LetTheCabbagesDie · 18/04/2020 19:08

Brown sauce? Confused That's for sausages, surely?

Bagel, lightly toasted
Bacon (all fat removed - ugh, ugh, ugh) fried
Chilli cheese melted on top

Or

Bacon, Brie and cranberry panini

Mine would be
White farm house bread
Good quality butter
Farm shop back bacon grilled
No other addidtives required although fried egg is acceptable

I love anything sweet and salty. This isn't strictly just a bacon sarnie though:

-soft bread like warburtons, chilli jam, crispy bacon and avocado.

CherieBabySpliffUp · 18/04/2020 19:09

Buttered sub roll
Thick cut back bacon
Home made coleslaw
Generously seasoned with salt and pepper.
Yum 😋

YippeeKayakOtherBuckets · 18/04/2020 19:10

Streaky bacon, crispy.

Fluffy white bread with salty butter.

Avocado.

PorpentiaScamander · 18/04/2020 19:11

Bacon. Brie. Rocket. Cranberry sauce. French stick/ crusty white roll - tiger works well.

LetTheCabbagesDie · 18/04/2020 19:11

Coleslaw is an interesting addition to a bacon sandwich. I'll definitely try that.

Fresh Warburton's toastie, crispy grilled back bacon x 3, and five sliced mushrooms fried in butter. So good!

RingaRosie · 18/04/2020 19:12

Smoked Maple bacon
Buttered Chia Toast
Hellmanns Mayonnaise
Cup of Tea x 2

bettybattenburg · 18/04/2020 19:13

bacon with rind on it
crusty bread roll
salted butter
salt crystal with fennel seeds grated
and never ever tomato ketchup or brown sauce
optional - runny egg

Bleugh, no. Ketchup is for sausages.

Maybe it’s a Scottish thing? Brown sauce is totally normal for a bacon roll, although I’ve noticed more people having ketchup since moving to the west coast.

HappyDinosaur · 18/04/2020 19:15

Soft white bread, mayonnaise, crispy bacon, brown sauce and cheddar cheese. Amazing!

Wewearpinkonwednesdays · 18/04/2020 19:16

White Warburtons bread (actually had seeded brown this morning which was nice too)
Crispy smoked bacon
Fried egg white (no yolk 🤢)
Ketchup
Plenty of lurpack butter

Wewearpinkonwednesdays · 18/04/2020 19:18

Or crispy bacon
Bagel
Cream cheese
Mango chutney

LetTheCabbagesDie · 18/04/2020 19:19

Does anyone actually prefer bacon fatty rather than crispy?

OP posts:
MrsTWH · 18/04/2020 19:20

@amusedbush has nailed it.

Warburtons, salted butter and brown sauce. Epic.

But the bacon has to be crispy.

LetTheCabbagesDie · 18/04/2020 19:22

No, no, no. We can't have brown sauce on a bacon sandwich. Angry

YakkityYakYakYak · 18/04/2020 19:22

Toasted white bagel with proper butter
4 rashers of unsmoked back bacon, crispy
Tomato sauce

ArbitraryNameChange · 18/04/2020 19:22

No no. No no. You're all doing it wrong.

Fresh bread, untoasted, no butter. Crispy bacon. Let fat soak into bread. Drizzle of brown sauce. Slice of bread put on top.

Don't scrimp on the bacon, at least six rashers of smoked back.

Junobug · 18/04/2020 19:23

Bacon sandwiches work best when kept simple. Good quality, white bread, proper butter, dry cured free range bacon with crispy fat and ketchup. I'll let you have brown sauce but I agree it's for sausages.

Sonichu · 18/04/2020 19:23

Brown sauce shouldn't be used on anything and yuk @ crispy bacon.

LetTheCabbagesDie · 18/04/2020 19:24

Untoasted bread? No butter? What kind of fresh hell is this you speak of Arbitrary?

MyFartWillGoOn · 18/04/2020 19:24

You are all overlooking the beauty that is toasted brioche bread!

Smoked streaky bacon, crispy-fried not grilled.
Lightly toasted brioche bread white
Ketchup

Amazing
I'm salivating
