STEAK BREAKFAST SANDWICH--MY DAD'S FAVORITE

My Dad at John Ball Park.  He has his light meter for his camera around his neck and in the pocket of his shirt.  Taking pictures in his day was much different than our point and shot cameras are now.

I was standing in line at the store while reading a magazine.  The article I was looking at said that the newest "in" thing was going to be breakfast sandwiches made by chefs.  Reading about breakfast sandwiches brought back the memory of my Dad's favorite morning sandwich from the little diner that was across the street from his dry cleaning plant. 

So simple, so good.  Enjoy!!!

This 1950's diner breakfast sandwich is so simple and very good just the way it use to be.  However, with all the new products now available it can be dressed up many different ways to fit your individual taste.

STEAK BREAKFAST SANDWICH--MY DAD'S FAVORITE

Sizzler steaks
Eggs
Kaiser rolls or other good hamburger-type roll
American cheese slices

Ingredients:  Sizzler steaks, eggs, cheese, and good-quality hamburger-type buns.


Cheeses to dress up a simple sandwich:  Gouda, Chipotle Cheddar, Cheddar, Swiss or cheese of your choice.  It is amazing the cheeses that are now available pre-sliced.

This is the seasoning that my family likes on eggs.  It is also great on pork chops or just about anything.  Do not used on cooked food.  I think it needs to be cooked on the food for best flavor.

In a frying pan, fry the sizzler steaks.  Put the cook steaks in another pan on a very low burner.  Put buns over the steaks.  Add a couple of drops of water to the pan, cover and let the buns steam while the eggs cook.  In the pan the steaks were fried in, put eggs.  Season well.  Cook to desired doneness.  Place cheese slices on eggs and let the cheese melt.  Place the steak on a bun and top with cheese covered egg.  Place bun top on the cheese.  Serve.
