Preparing Big Breakfast Sandwich with Bacon, Sausage or Smoked Sausage

  • Big breakfast sandwiches are prepared to order
  • Always wear single use gloves when preparing sandwiches
  • When a sandwich is ordered, place 2 slices of Texas toast on the bun toaster chain
  • Pull down the foil wrap for a Big Breakfast Sandwich
  • Ensure the word Special on the foil wrap is facing away from you
  • Once toasted, remove one slice of Texas toast from the toaster
  • Place the toasted side of the toast down in the center of the foil wrap & build the sandwich on the non-toasted side of the toast
  • If a customer orders the sandwich with bacon, place four whole slices of bacon in a crisscross pattern onto the non-toasted side of the toast
  • If a customer orders the sandwich with sausage, Place 2 pieces of sausage patties diagonally onto the non-toasted side of the toast
  • If a customer orders the sandwich with smoked sausage, Place 2 links of smoked sausage onto the non-toasted side of the toast 
  • Place one slice of American cheese on top of the bacon, sausage or smoked sausage 
  • Using yellow tongs, place 1 folded egg on top of the American cheese
  •  
  • Remove the 2nd slice of Texas toast from bun toaster & apply mayonnaise to the non-toasted side
  • Apply condiments to all sandwiches in the following manner:
  • Mayonnaise: Use a condiment spatula to place ¾ oz. of mayonnaise on the crown using a down and across motion
  •  
  • If a customer orders a sandwich without one of the designated ingredients, skip that one and move to the next item in the sequence
  • Place the slice of toast with mayonnaise on top of the folded egg
  •  
  • Wrap the Big breakfast sandwich in foil wrap following the “Square” wrapping procedures (See “Sandwich Wrapping” located in the Sandwich section of the OPS manual)
