Method

  1. Place a cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat.

  2. Spread butter on the cut sides of the bagels.

  3. Place the bagel halves, butter-side down, in the skillet and toast until golden for about 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.

  4. In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and 1 tablespoon of butter. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and golden for approximately 20 minutes. Remove to a plate.

  5. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Mix well and set aside.

  6. In a medium bowl, mix the hot and maple sausage together. Shape the mixture into six 1/2-inch-thick patties, slightly larger than the diameter of the bagels (as the burgers will shrink during cooking).

  7. Place the same skillet over medium heat and add the sausage patties. Fry on both sides until cooked through, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Top each patty with 2 slices of Cheddar cheese and cover the skillet with a lid to help melt the cheese for 1 to 2 minutes.

  8. In a separate nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, fry the eggs in 1 tablespoon of butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until one side is set, then flip and cook the other side to the desired doneness.
