Method

Burger Assembly

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pimento Cheese

    If you haven't prepared the pimento cheese yet, mix together cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, diced pimentos, mayonnaise, and seasonings in a bowl until creamy and well combined.

  2. 2

    Fry the Eggs

    In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Toast the Kaiser Rolls

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter and toast the cut sides of the Kaiser rolls until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread a generous amount of pimento cheese on the bottom half of each toasted Kaiser roll. Top with a lettuce leaf, sliced pickles, and a fried egg. Finally, sprinkle crushed potato chips on top before placing the top half of the roll.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Back Porch Burger!
