Step 1
Cook bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 2
In the same skillet, melt 0.25 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Crack the egg into the skillet and cook to your preference (sunny-side up, over-easy, or over-medium), about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Toast the bread slices until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
Step 4
Butter the inside of the toasted bread slices with remaining butter.
Step 5
Assemble sandwich: place cooked bacon on one slice of toast, top with cooked egg, then cheese slice, then remaining toast. Serve immediately.
