What makes a perfect bacon sarnie?
Sandwich, bap, roll, wrap etc.

Cheap sliced white bread, butter, tomato sauce and slightly crispy bacon.

I was with you other than tomato sauce.. brown all the way

Bacon, bread, sauce. Done.

Soft buttered breadcake (let's not start that debate)
Bacon needs to be fried enough to make the fat not chewy.
Brown sauce.

Swear it’s just redditors having me on here, surely nobody actually says ‘breadcake’ IRL?
7
We do in my town, although I'm not sure how far out of town it extends.

I also say breadcake, solidarity my breadcake friend.

Its how we say it in Sheffield

Out of all the roll arguments on this sub, I'm fairly sure you just made soft buttered breadcake up because I've never heard that one
4
? A breadcake is a bap, roll, barm, whatever etc
They're more desirable when they're soft with butter.
But I suppose if you're "fairly sure", I must have made it up lol

Isn't bacon in a bread roll closer to a burger than a sandwich though

oh so you want an argument then

In bacon sarnies there is no discrimination, they are all awsome.

Well done smoked back bacon, Daddies tomato ketchup, thick white bread. No butter or spread is required.
However, if you want the Sarah Glutton version, you firstly fetch out the Breville, four slices of thick white bread, butter or spread, eight rashers of the same bacon as before, four slices of cheap plastic cheese, Heinz tomato relish or Daddies tomato ketchup, and Marmite.
Cook the bacon (but not quite as well done as for the basic sandwich) and prepare your bread for the Breville: butter both sides, then slather on the Marmite to one side of each slice. Lay two slices on each side of the Breville, butter only side down, then lay one slice of plastic cheese in the centre. Next, two pieces of bacon across each slice of bread, fat end to thin end each, for better bread coverage. Spread on either the ketchup or relish, the next layer of bacon (same orientation as before, but alternate the fat and thin ends around. Second layer of plastic cheese, then the final two slices of bread (butter and Marmite side down). Fight with the Breville to close the bastard shut on the terrifying creation you just made, and wait.
Once the monstrous comestibles are ready, you have two choices. Eat sensibly so as not to make a fucking mess of yourself, or attempt to inhale it all at break neck speed so that you end up in A&E with fourth degree burns to your mouth but my word, wasn’t it worth it?

Due to a genetic cholesterol issue, I've started making bacon sarnies with turkey 'bacon' and I'm happy to report it's gorgeous and hard to tell from the real thing.

Smoked bacon on a toasted bagel! Get in my face. And ketchup on the side. Wild.

White crusty bread, back bacon with crispy fat, crunchy peanut butter.
2†
Peanut butter?? You're either some kind of foreign sex pervert or a genius. I'm going to try this next time I make one
11
I'm very much British, but I can't claim I invented this. Saw it on a pub lunch menu about 20 years ago, it was a life changing experience.
Every single person I have recommended this to (that likes peanut butter) has reported back that it was amazing.

Well I'm sold!

Very disappointed that i have just eaten 2 bacon rolls not 5 minutes before seeing this post. Must try next time.

You won't regret it. It's a game changer.

No not peanut butter
6
If you like peanut butter, give it a go
1
You’re rightly going to get criticised for the peanut butter nonsense. It’s HP brown sauce with bacon. I’m pretty sure it’s the law
2
I'll forgive your incorrect assertion on the assumption that you've not tried it with peanut butter.
Report back once you have.

Fried egg

Lots of bacon, cooked crispy, mayo instead of butter, sliced fried tomatoes. In thick sliced fresh bread.

If we’re gonna add sausages might as well get a fried egg in there too. Mmmm...
2
If you're adding sausage and egg, might as well forget the sandwich and just have a fry up.
3
You can eat a fry up on a sandwich.
Belly buster is where it’s at.

Toast, well cooked bacon, butter

Smoked bacon in a pan. An even number of rashers. Not too crispy, but with a decent colour on them. Medium white bread, with the top slice fried in the bacon grease. Then chop it in half through the middle.
1
IMO. Properly cooked and crispy fat. White bread. Butter. Tommy K (sometimes). Keep it simple.
1
Oven bottom muffin, proper butter, HP, at least 4 rashers of bacon.

I’m sorry but much like a very good friend of mine, once I realised he was a marmite junkie I had to cut him form my life. It’s not personal, sorry.
