Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the English Muffins

    Split the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ham

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the slices of Marrow Detroit ham and cook until heated through and slightly crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    In a saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer and add white vinegar. Crack the eggs into separate small bowls. Gently slide each egg into the simmering water. Poach the eggs for 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Classic Benny

    On each toasted English muffin half, place a slice of the cooked Marrow Detroit ham. Top each with a poached egg, then drizzle with the remaining melted butter and season with salt and black pepper. Garnish with fresh chives.
