Put away the cold cereal for breakfast, I just a much more exciting recipe option! A hearty Bacon-and-Egg Cheese Breakfast Burger is loaded with favorite breakfast ingredients along with some spicy sauce and greens. It takes no longer to make than a regular hot breakfast but is far more unexpected and memorable.
There really is nothing like a good, freshly grilled burger when in the mood! One of my all time favorite smells is that of burgers grilling on the ski slopes in the winter. There is just nothing like it! Many people think of burgers for lunch or dinner but today I want to change your mind. A Bacon and Egg Cheese Breakfast Burger is great for ANY meal of the day!
I’m not sure exactly what sparked the idea of combining the best of breakfast with a burger but my muse delivered. A cheesy grilled burger, topped by a fried egg, bacon, arugula and Sriracha-Sour Cream; do I have your attention?
Perhaps the best part of a bacon-and-egg cheese breakfast burger is that when it is squeezed to eat the yolk breaks, runs down the sides of the burger just enough to add to the juiciness. I’ve developed some tips for grilling the best burgers that ensure my grilled burgers are always juicy, well-cooked but not overdone every time, making it fun to change things up with confidence about the outcome.
I really can’t image a better combination of flavors with the added crunch of arugula which wilts a bit when added on top of the warm burger adding a peppery bite. It struck me when assembling, this probably qualified as ‘hangover food’ as well; something to take the edge off the morning after a bit too much fun!
If you are a burger lover and ready to get your grill on I have more ideas you’ll love! Some of my favorites are stuffed burgers. Stuffed Taco Burgers are filled with taco ingredients you love! If you are adventurous I’d suggest the Grill-Smoked Green Chile Burgers in a Bacon Weave. They are easy to make, packed with flavor and always impress. Making a bacon weave looks like it would be difficult but they aren’t (there is a step by step photo tutorial of how to make them in the recipe post).
Hay-Smoked Salmon Burgers are a great flavor departure from the norm and do not require a smoker. This collection of 8 Amazing Burger and Hot Dog Recipes You’ll Love will kick off your summer grilling season with a bang too! Plenty of delicious, out of the ordinary options to try.
The great thing about breakfast is that it’s the one meal people eat all day long! When adding a burger to the fried egg, bacon, sriracha sour cream and cheese, it becomes an irresistible recipe great for any time of the day or night. I mean, look at this bad boy?!

Mornings are not my friends. Breakfast, therefore, is often lacking in the flavor or effort department. I would love to make this burger for dinner and have the breakfast I love when I’m actually awake!
Toni Dash says
Works for that too!
