Bobby Flay Prefers Breakfast Favorite as Midnight Snack

Chances are, you’re not ‍going to beat Bobby Flay when it comes to food opinions. He’s one of the most notorious ​names in cooking as Food‍ Network ‌royalty, earning several Daytime Emmy Awards and a star on the Hollywood Walk⁢ of Fame. Author, James ⁤Beard Award recipient, four-time restaurateur, and ⁣fierce competitor, Flay’s always up for a challenge — and for a midnight snack, too.⁢ His go-to? ‍A delicious New York bacon, egg, and ⁢cheese sandwich.

Before he ​attended the French Culinary Institute⁢ and⁢ made a name for​ himself,‍ Flay was like any other New Yorker. He still manages to keep⁣ life simple by‍ coming home to his beloved cats and humbly ⁣whipping up ⁤breakfast after dark. In an Instagram post for Misfits Market, he ⁤fondly recalls, “It’s one of the things I grew up eating. You⁣ know, we’d go to our local deli,⁤ 24-hour late-night situation and ⁢get a bacon‌ egg and cheese​ sandwich. You know maybe after a couple of​ cocktails or ⁣something like that.”

Flay has been making these sandwiches for years. In the sponsored social media post he breaks ⁢down how to make⁤ the sandwich using fresh ingredients—and it’s surprisingly simple.

While you ‌can always order ⁣a ⁤bacon egg and cheese sandwich from chain restaurants like Starbucks and‍ McDonald’s⁣ when you’re home and your favorite places are all closed you​ can still enjoy breakfast⁢ any time of day. All Bobby Flay uses for his sandwich is bacon ​eggs American cheese salt pepper harissa (a heavily spiced⁤ Tunisian red pepper paste) and a brioche roll—that’s it! By making⁣ the ‍bacon first you can cook the eggs in rendered⁢ pork fat ​for amped-up ⁣flavor season‍ them and let the cheese melt on top before throwing it all on your harissa-slathered bun or toast for perfect late-night comfort meal.

If you want⁤ to freestyle and elevate your sandwich‍ learn the best way to⁣ cook bacon! You could ⁤also switch up your seasoning routine by coating it in brown sugar and chile flakes or⁣ scramble your eggs‌ by whisking‌ in ⁢crème fraîche and butter for fluffier texture! ⁤Don’t have harissa on hand? ‍Combine mayonnaise sriracha and lemon‌ juice to make simple ⁢three-ingredient breakfast sauce—for zestier⁤ savorier taste! And while brioche ⁤is plenty ⁤rich already another ‍way⁣ revamp‍ your ⁢sandwich is by using French toast as bread—for twice breakfasty late-night satisfaction.
