Method

Sausage Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Sausage

    In a large bowl, combine the ground pork with salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Form the sausage mixture into patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the patties are browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Biscuit Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Biscuit Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the buttermilk until just combined.

  2. 4

    Shape the Biscuits

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick round. Use a biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits and place them on a baking sheet.

  3. 5

    Bake the Biscuits

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Egg and Cheese Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the Eggs

    In a non-stick skillet, crack the eggs and cook over medium heat until the whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes. If desired, flip the eggs for an over-easy style.

  2. 7

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the eggs and cover the skillet for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Biscuit Sandwich

    Slice the baked biscuits in half. Place a sausage patty on the bottom half, followed by the cheesy egg. Top with the other half of the biscuit. Serve immediately.
