    Just a note of history. I worked at McDonald's when the Egg McMuffin was first brought out in the Summer of 1972. Commercially available English Muffins, the same cheese we used on burgers, "Canadian Bacon", and we used real eggs. That is, we actually had eggs in the shell. I remember my later to be brother-in-law working to get the technique right as the instructions from the "Main Office" didn't quite work as well to start with. Eggs are not as forgiving as burger patties.

    Ex-McDonalds employee here. They break the yolks for the McMuffins round eggs. The egg tool is this pair of plastic tweezers with prongs on the bottom for quickly breaking a bunch of yolks, and tweezers on the front for picking out eggshells. Instead of the old ring on grill method, they're now made in non-stick dishes set into trays that go into convection ovens. Of course they didn't have teflon in the 18th century. Just figured I'd mention it. Also always go for round egg over folded egg. The folded eggs come pre formed and pre cooked in a package, and are only reheated in the oven. BTW that branding iron is pure style.

    I think the sausage is probably too big, so the ratios would be off for a sandwich, but I love this thought experiment series!

    I have been doing the same thing but with Southern buttermilk biscuits... For the sausage..I season fairly lean ground pork with the usual spices (lots of sage) and add curry spice mix which is actually an English invention... I like mine hot so I add a bit of cayenne pepper along with the black pepper... I cook the sausage patties thin... I scramble the eggs but don't use a ring.. just cut them square to size... They are pretty good...

    John Adams was my uncle, some 9 generations ago.

    Hey, I make a breakfast sandwich that John would love too. I make homemade English sourdough muffins or homemade sourdough beagles, put on some homemade Canadian Bacon and a fried egg and a slice of homemade farmer cheese, put the top on and my hubby loves them. We make them early in the morning if we are going on a little day trip and take them in the pick up truck when out and about on a busy day. No stopping for the Golden Arches charging us several bucks for Lord knows what is in that sandwich! LOL. From recipes handed down in our family, my ancestors on my Paternal Grandmothers side, they had their own sourdough stater they kept alive for decades and made bread with it, English muffins, biscuits and scones with it. One recipe came over from Ireland with my 8 X's Great Grandmother. She used wheat flour she "ground through a stone twice thru and spring water" for her starter. Really interesting to read these old recipes. My Maternal Great Great Grandmother had Martha Washington's cook book. My cousin has it now and we have all shared recipes from it!

    This was a fantastic video!! If I should nitpick (and not intentionally meant to question your travel food choices), it would be that it was not a "classic egg mcmuffin" which is egg, cheese and "Canadian" or back bacon. Instead you made the Sausage McMuffin with Egg. I do not know if back bacon was available in the 18th Century but if it was, that would be the only comment. Otherwise, "Well done" and "Bon appettit!" And that sausage patty looks soooooo delicious!

    Taking a rolling pin to the sausage to thin the patty and using the ring to get the size right might help with eating the thing without having to dislocate your jaw to bite it.

    This series is a lot of fun =) And those sandwiches looked so good. I made up a batch of kitchen pepper and tried it on pork chops, it was great, I can definitively see it being a great blend for sausage as well.
