Went all out country for Sunday breakfast for myself and a guest. I had smoked boneless pork loin chops from Buy for Less, about 3/8" thick. Got those going sous vide (40 minutes in a freezer bag with a bit of butter in a pot of water at 143 fegrees F) . Meanwhile I whipped up a batch of Cathead Buttermilk Drop Biscuits and some sausage gravy. When the smoked pork was warm, I breaded them in a knock-off KFC Original breading I keep around and deep fried them and made farm eggs over easy. Assembled with gravy on biscuit bottom, pork chop next, a bit more gravy, sharp white cheddar and finally an egg and the biscuit top.
A bunch of effort, but it hit nearly all my cravings for Southeastern U.S. breakfast I n one fantastic messy breakfast sandwich next to a pile of fried potatoes!
Can't believe I didn't take any photos, but I was pretty busy getting this done and plated.

it's nice to see that somebody else here is playing around with sous vide. i bought a unit early this year and have really enjoyed experimenting with it. -M
I loved the Frisco breakfast sandwich from Hardee's as a kid. Denny's moons over my-hammy is also pretty nice. Nowadays I'm more of an omelette & hash browns guy, but I'm tempted to try the breakfast sandwich offerings at Boom-A-Rang Diner in Bethany (a frequent breakfast stop of ours).
Carl's Jr is serving a breakfast sandwich on an Auntie Anne's pretzel bun right now that is pretty tasty..... Only drawback is the sodium content in it is about a weeks recommended allowance.
If it's still open, my favorite is from the Golden Dragon in FNC. Sausage/egg/cheese bagel/biscuit. Hnng.
Not throwing any shade on Oklahoma, it has it's own set of good local eats, but everywhere I've lived for any time except for Florida has taken breakfast sandwiches to an art form. Tennessee has Bacon/Egg/Cheese on white toast, every possible permutation of meat/egg/cheese on a perfect drop biscuit, and what amounts to any kind of omelette you want stuffed into steamed pita halves. Michigan doesn't really seem to be that focused on ingredients, but their offerings span an impressive gourmet array like pastrami, fried egg and feta on Rosemary toast. They're invested. West Virginia has a whole chain of restaurants called Tudor's Breakfast World. With that in my head, Okllahoma doesn't seem to put much effort int breakfast on the go.
