Just polished off a few rashers of crispy bacon, 2 slices of soft white bread, and lashings of tom and brown sauce....nom nom

Has to be white bread, love my wholemeal but for bacon sarnies, nowt but white.

Red sauce for me, but lashings of butter on the bread will suffice.

Have also discovered, after trial and error, that the tastiest supermarket bacon is Walls! :O Shocked me too. Have tried organic, local, finest, thickest, etc, but turns out, walls is not salty (even some smoked I find salty), not tough or watery, minimal fat (but enough to get a crisp) and tastes like, well, bacon.

Lightly toasted white sliced. Sweetcure bacon, ideally a mix of back and streaky but hard to really justify eating two entire packs of bacon at one sitting (it goes off fast, you know).

white door stop bread with plenty of butter then take 4 rasher of good bacon (not the water filled rubbish from supermarkets) show them the pan for 1 min each side. finally bring the lot together with loads of tommy sauce (tip tree).

Then get a large mug of strong tea with one suger and make sure you get a good mixture of sauce and melted butter down your t-shirt and around you face (so your wife/ partner looks at you as if the say "why") .....................job done

Good quality bacon.
Must be white bread!
No butter.
Brown sauce.
Fried egg (runny yolk)
& always better if yoy don't have to make it yourself.

"Your weird, you are!" </Cleese>

It has to be sliced white bread, somehow. It's the only proper use for the stuff. And brown sauce, please. Back. Unsmoked. 'Just' cooked, not cremated. yesyum

Seafood sauce in a bacon butty.

Nice hurl

Two things are crucial: the bread, the bacon.

Bread = white & crusty

Bacon = back (none of that streaky scutter ste); grilled

Sauce of choice (current favourite is Stokes' Real Tomato Ketchup http://www.nothingbutthebest.co.uk/productList.asp...)

Stottie cake, usually half a full sized one
smoked bacon - nice bacon and plentiful amounts of it, stottie cakes aren't small and the pig to bread ratio must be right.
HP fruity sauce

4 rashers of rindless bacon, shallow fry in maple sauce for a few minutes.

2 fat cumberland sausages, split longitudinally down their phalanx, throw in to pan and shallow fry with bacon.

2 slices of fat white bread, toasted lightly until golden.

Add proper farmhouse butter to toast, ensuring butter seeps into crusts.

Construct sammich with bacon first followed by sausages then a cap of bacon!

Serve with a mug of hot tea with 2 sugars


Culinary perfection!

Good man, regards marg you're spot on there. Considering marg is one molecule away from being a plastic it should be used only as a lubricant for railway rolling stock, utter vile stuff!

Butter as nature intended is the essential ingredient in a bacon butty which ever way you construct it!
