Scale
Meat Ingredients:
- 1 pound (454 grams) ground beef
- 1 pound (454 grams) ground sausage
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Egg Ingredients:
- 12 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon white pepper
Assembly Ingredients:
- 6 English muffins
- 6 slices cheese
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) melted butter
- Syrup to taste
Instructions
- Whisk eggs, milk, and seasonings until thoroughly combined, creating a smooth mixture for uniform texture.
- Line a baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring complete coverage for easy egg removal.
- Pour egg mixture into prepared dish, spreading evenly to create a consistent layer at 350°F for 20 minutes until fully set.
- While eggs bake, blend ground meats with selected herbs and spices, ensuring balanced flavor distribution.
- Shape meat mixture into generous patties slightly larger than english muffins to accommodate proper coverage.
- Sear patties in a hot skillet, cooking 5-6 minutes per side to develop a robust caramelized exterior and ensure complete internal cooking.
- Lightly toast english muffins, brushing with melted butter and a hint of syrup for enhanced flavor complexity.
- Layer each muffin with a slice of cheese, positioning to melt slightly from residual meat heat.
- Carefully place cooked meat patties atop cheese, creating a harmonious sandwich construction.
- Individually wrap each sandwich in parchment or plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn and maintain optimal freshness.
- Transfer wrapped sandwiches into designated freezer bags, organizing for convenient future retrieval and consumption.
Notes
- Customize meat choices by swapping sausage for turkey, chicken, or plant-based patties for dietary preferences.
- Try different cheese varieties like sharp cheddar, pepper jack, or dairy-free alternatives to match taste profiles.
- Pre-portion egg mixture into muffin tins for perfectly sized, uniform portions that cook evenly and look professional.
- Add extra flavor boosters like fresh herbs, hot sauce, or caramelized onions to elevate the sandwich’s taste complexity.
