Quantities are estimated based on standard recipes for your convenience. The actual ingredients used in this video are accurate.

1

Start with white bloomer bread, preferably square for one version and round for another.

2

Place streaky bacon into a cold pan without any oil to melt the fat as it cooks.

3

Turn the heat on low to allow the bacon to render its fat before it colors.

4

For back bacon, apply a little oil to prevent sticking and grill it under high heat to create a cup shape.

5

Press the bacon down with a pan to ensure it cooks evenly and gets crispy.

6

Once the bacon is crispy, assemble the sandwich with a layer of butter on the bread.

7

Add a perfect layer of bacon on top of the buttered bread.

8

Pour the leftover bacon fat from the pan onto the sandwich for added flavor.

9

Fry the assembled sandwich in the pan for a few minutes on low to medium heat until golden brown.

10

Slice the sandwich into four pieces, ensuring the bacon rashers are aligned for even bites.

11

Serve with sauces on the side for dipping.
