1
Prepare the Beef
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground Hereford beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
2
Form Patties
Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and form them into balls. Do not overwork the meat.

3
Preheat Cooking Surface
Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until hot.
4
Smash the Patties
Place the beef balls on the skillet and use a spatula to smash them down into thin patties. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned and crispy. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

5
Fry the Egg
In a separate non-stick skillet, add a little oil and heat over medium heat. Crack the cage-free egg into the skillet and cook until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 3-4 minutes. You can cover the skillet to help the egg cook evenly.

6
Prepare the Buns
Toast the beer buns lightly on the skillet until golden brown.
7
Layer the Ingredients
On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread 2 tablespoons of rooster mayo. Place a smashed beef patty on top, followed by shredded lettuce, a slice of tomato, a few slices of onion, and finally the sunny-side-up egg. Top with the other half of the bun.
