    1 high-quality, thick-cut steak (such as ribeye or New York strip), aged and well-marbled

  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 toasted bagels
  • 8 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices crispy bacon
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Your favorite hot sauce (optional)

  • Preparation:

    1. Prepare the Steak: Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear to your desired level of doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly.
    2. Cook the Eggs: While the steak rests, cook the eggs to your preference. You can fry them sunny-side up, scramble them, or poach them.
    3. Assemble the Bagel: Spread softened butter on both halves of each toasted bagel. Layer on the cheese, crispy bacon, and cooked eggs. Top with thinly sliced steak.
    4. Serve: Serve immediately, with your favorite hot sauce on the side for those who like a little extra kick.

    Total Time: Approximately 20-30 minutes

    Serving Ideas:

    Elevate the Experience: Serve the Steakhouse Sunrise Bagel on a beautiful plate with a side of crispy hash browns or a fresh fruit salad.

  • A Touch of Luxury: Drizzle the finished bagel with a rich truffle aioli or a tangy chimichurri sauce.
  • Breakfast Cocktail Pairing: Pair your bagel with a refreshing mimosa or a bold Bloody Mary.
