Here on the Island a BEC sandwich is huge for breakfast.... every deli, bagel store, diner, restaurant, or Bodega makes them....relatively cheap, easy to take and eat , and delicious....

Variations are sausage patty instead of bacon, cheese or no cheese, (always American), salt, pepper, hard roll, bagel, or toast....you put in your order and a few minutes a foil wrapped sandwich appears...

As popular as they are, you don't find them in the rest of the country, every non pat that's left here complain you can't get one where they now live....

Anyone else have a regional specialty you can get fast and go? I know the kids in Texas can get a breakfast Burrito everywhere....but they ain't the same!, lol

Can't find deli, bagel store, diner, restaurant, or Bodega here in rural E. KS. BBQ is a different story. Meat cooked on hickory wood fires and served with dippin sauce. Its not smothered with sauce and then cooked.

We have BEC in upstate NY usually on a hard roll. I usually get one w/extra bacon and provolone.

Dry common in the southeast.

egg sandwiches are common here

usually on a croissant or English muffin here

egg
bacon , sausage , Canadian bacon or ham as the meat
cheese , this is only optional unless you are lactose intolerant or a fib.

Kwik Trip must sell 10K of them a morning in one variation or another.

we make / made them at home

I am more likely to make it a scramble now and toss it in a low carb tortilla because I can limit my carbs that way better.
and maybe jaz it up with a little sour cream and salsa , still wraps up nice in foil
I use the cheap normal carb tortillas for my son as they are cheap and easy to store for up to about a month in the fridge.

I don't keep much bread around

but if you do and you want to try a slightly different take on it , the kids called it toad in a hole , you rip the center out of your slice of bread and eat that , then in your hot skillet with some butter drop the hollowed out slice of bread and crack and egg in the middle , the bread functions as a egg form , now you just let it cook most of the way and give it a flip , you can keep a runny yoke but not make a big mess with the samich

Almost every convenience store down here sells them.... nearly 100% on biscuits though. Biscuits are okay but English muffins are my preference.

We called that toast with egg in center “hen in a basket”. The removed circle gets fried in the same butter as the egg and rest of the bread. Then served with it for dipping etc. Haven’t had that in a while.

Made a snow goose bf sausage and fresh asparagus & egg casserole this morning. Good stuff!

I remember Danny sharing a story about him going into a diner somewhere and ordering biscuits and gravy and the waitress had no idea what that was. Just blew my mind.

My dad used to make sandwich he called an "outsemider".. Fied egg, ham and cheese on toast with miracle whip. No idea where he came up with the name, but I whip one up on occasion in his memory.

Chorizo n egg burrito....

Every supermarket and quick stop has several variations of them here. My wife is a teacher that has her kids cook every once in a while if they behave. Toad in the hole is one of their favorites and all you need is a griddle in the classroom to cook on.

Dunkin Donuts has a 6.00 meal deal around here

Med hot coffee

6-8 hash browns / tater tots

Bacon egg cheess on an English muffin ..or a Bagel or Croissant

Get it right at the drive thru

I don't know about your Dunkins but I tried one of those BEC's at a local Dunkin and it was not very good. I still go there for the coffee but never to eat.

I used to make egg and cheese sandwiches to take for lunch at work. they are not that bad cold, better than the Dunkin sandwiches. LOL

Only thing McDs is good for is their BEC biscuit....

I like mine on a Kaiser roll. Have t figured out the right sauce yet though. Needs some lube but nothing seems quite right.

You do know McD's sells them, and has for years. They are everywhere in the US.
