Ingredients

  • 4 Hamburger Bun
  • 32 hash brown potatoes cooked in oven until browned and crispy, frozen crowns
  • 1 pound ground beef (I used 85/15, 80/20 works too)
  • 4 lices American cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 egg scrambled
  • 8 lices Bacon thick cut
  • salt to taste, kosher salt and fresh cracked
  • black pepper to taste, kosher salt and fresh cracked
  • 1/2 cup ketchup

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large cast iron skillet, cook your bacon crisp.
  2. Pour out excess oil but leave about a tablespoon.
  3. Form the ground beef into four patties, press your thumb into the center of the patty to make an indent (this prevents the patty from becoming misshapen).
  4. Season patties with kosher salt and pepper, to taste.
  5. On high heat cook the beef patties for 3 minutes on each side.
  6. Remove the patties and turn the heat to low.
  7. Press the buns into the pan lightly and let brown and toast for a few minutes while cooking the eggs
  8. In a large frying pan melt the butter on low in two batches.
  9. Cook the eggs on low until they are cooked through but with no browning (this will take a few minutes).
  10. Stack with bottom bun, 8 hash browns crowns, ketchup, beef patty, American cheese, 1/4 of the egg folded over, two slices of bacon, ketchup and the top of the bun.
  11. Serve immediately with extra napkins.
