Bacon sandwich

[kp4]

Is anyone a fan of a bacon sandwich with baked beans on the side? Would you have it with some mustard instead of ketchup or brown sauce? Is this acceptable amongst Brits?

Had this discussion in my local last night... some got really offended.

[KidKruger]

mustard only.

[????]

Brown rocking

I can understand but not want the beans

It's got to be on a crispy baguette, butter (never Marge) , 3 slices of fried dry cured smoked bacon, an egg, sunny side down, fried tomatoe , sometimes mushrooms, sometimes not, brown sauce on one side, red on the other and lettuce (to make it appear healthy) and if I am feeling really decadent fried flat sausage too...

I can feel the grease running down my chin now... Damn you cheese sandwich for tempting me today before I saw and wanted this ...

Baked Beans on the side - that's a no-no.

Bacon Sandwich is just that. A bacon sandwich. Only thing on the side is a mug of sweet tea... Red sauce for me, but just a small blob.

ETA: Sometimes whack in a slice of black pudding, fried in butter.

Oooh, no. Cheap, supermarket white - the type that squidges easily. And a generous dollop of brown sauce in the sandwich.

And yes, you can add mushrooms, egg, tomato, sausage - but it's not a Bacon Sandwich then. But no beans. For a fry-up, yep, but nowhere near a bacon sandwich.

And definitely no bloody lettuce.

Oscar Mayer (or whatever it's called now) bacon, Warburtons white toastie, Heinz tommy K.

That's all you need.

Beans with a bacon sarnie is sacrilege.

Lol

But what about chips or is that too not a bacon sarnie ... More of a chip and bacon buttie ?

I have never put chips in a sandwich. That much carbohydrate between two slices of carbohydrate just seems wrong.

(I know I am probably in a minority of one on this.)

But just think of your figure... Actually don't think of your figure, it will never be the same agAin after a bacon and chip buttie 😅

It's got to be streaky bacon, cooked to a crisp. Ketchup and mustard (no butter) on granary bread. If adding a fried egg, mustard should not be used.

Bacon, either really thin and crispy or lardons, avocado, tomato, proper mayonnaise. Bread has got tricky as I can't do wheat so probably on one slice of light rye, toasted. Beans wouldn't go, but sometimes I put grilled lardons or cold gammon in the beans and that's pretty good.

[womanofdulwich]

I quite like a few slices of fried tomato and tommy sauce with mine.

[DulwichFox]

A good Sourdough white bread with one slice fried.... Thin cut back bacon and a good tomato ketchup (Stokes)

Never had mustard with bacon ??

Foxy.

[Help-Ma-Boab]

You used top get a cracker at Antenetto near the flying pig. not sure what its like now. Moved away!

[Jeremy]

Lardons, avocado, tomato, mayo... that's not a bacon sarnie!!

[DaveR]

Streaky bacon, crispy fat but still bendy, Sliced granary bread, butter, brown sauce. Tea. Newspaper. For real authenticity, hangover.

[Louisa]

Crusty brown bread sliced by hand, real butter, three slices of crispy bacon, and s tiny blob of brown sauce evenly spread.

Louisa.

AVOCADO???

I think you just gentrified the humble bacon sandwich.

[Otta]

Sriracha!

[Alan Medic]

I prefer a bacon sandwich with bacon.

[Saffron]

Beans are ok if served in a flowerpot next to the sandwich on a shovel obvs.

If I'm honest, the bacon's just there to offset the avocado.

I've always found bacon and coffee a bit of a disappointment. They never taste as good as they smell.
