All my family lives in North Jersey. They don't do pizza all that well but they do Italian better than anywhere else. There are so many good Italian restaurants and grocery stores everywhere you look.
 
The bagels are a bit small at Bruegger’s, but the Western sandwich is v good.
Bacon, egg, cheddar, green peppers, red peppers, onion, chipotle sauce. On an everything bagel...mmmmmm

Can we all agree that establishments (and there are 3 here within spitting distance in Essex as I type this) that scramble the eggs for their breakfast sandwiches instead of a broken yolk fried egg should all be burned to the ground?

Please lets get that stipulated before some dope like Dove comes here and starts singing the praises of something hideous.

Totally agree
 
Notch Store in Cheshire. Best breakfast sandwich I have ever had.

Ok I see the bacon egg and cheese, Portuguese roll and Taylor ham have been covered.

Who you got for best breakfast sausage patty? When the sausage patty is good, I prefer it to bacon for an egg and cheese sandwich.

Smoked kielbasa, man.

Angry Egg is my favorite breakfast spot in Manchester. Honestly don’t know if I’ve gotten the sandwich there but I’m sure it’s awesome.

No lie though, the Sam’s connivence store next to the Langan VW in Glastonbury makes the BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICHES
 
It’s interesting that this is definitely a food group that is better in the northeast. Living in Atlanta, and now California, I have learned the best BEC is made at home. And...they still don’t have real hard rolls....or good bread in general, that can compete with the northeast.

When I lived in Stamford, there was a diner on high ridge road near the Merritt, that had an amazing BEC. As I remember, it looked a lot like the picture on the Country Cow site. Not sure if they are still there.

Bread....pizza....BEC...bagels...all things that other parts of the country just don’t do as well as the northeast.

I actually like Dunkin Donuts' sausage patty (just the right amount of kick w/ other spices). I used to go to D&D the night before and just buy the sausage patties to take to UConn football tailgates.

Calandras bread ftw...
 
kid you not - Mobile Station grill at exit 14 in Southbury - Egg & cheese and hard roll 1.50 made to order

ADub has owned the first 3 pages of this thread. Especially the part about Dove being a dope. I can't recall a poster ever dominating a topic like this in recent memory.
 
When I lived in Stamford in the early 1980's Allen's Deli on High Ridge Rd had a great Bacon, Egg and Cheese on a hard Roll special that came with coffee and a Tropicana OJ. Probably not there anymore?
 
Circle Pizza in Madison at the rt 80/79 circle. I have not lived down that way in some time, but that was my go to breakfast sandwich. Ordered it with homefries on the sandwich and the best part was always being surprised at what they charged. Depending how they felt that day it could be anywhere from $2.75 to 4 and change.

The Brookfield one is better, but they are good too. The Brookfield one is actually fantastic for just about everything. It's my favorite deli in the area

Funny I was going to post this as my go-to but thought it was too obscure to be useful to others. This is the exact place I had in mind when I referenced going for the sausage patty instead of the bacon. I like their sausage patty better, and my wife and/or daughter usually get a BEC and only eat half, so I get their BEC scraps, which is perfect for me. Just had a round of these on Sunday. I have never had the home fries on the sandwich but will ask next time. My wife gets them on the side occasionally and I have liked them when I've had them.

With all the mention of the various Mobil delis, I also have to throw in Deli Unlimited in Guilford, in the Gulf station, as another solid contender. They are easily my second choice to Country Cow because they will also use a Portuguese roll on request.

Respect on the Deli U mention, everything is good there. I have enjoyed many Larry Birds.
 
Best Sausage, Egg and Cheese in CT can be had at the Winsted Diner. It's called the The Ra-Doc-A-Doodle in honor of the Diner's former owner Bob Radochhio.

Man, that's a sore spot almost as bad as pizza & bagels for me. There are a handful of us CT ex-pats on the r/pittsburgh subreddit who pine for actual hard rolls.

However, the best I've found in the past decade weren't in CT. They were from a bakery in Carle Place, LI.

I have a pretty good recipe that gave me the crumbly crust and soft innards, but I don't use it as wife no longer eats bread and they don't freeze well.

I'll also add that a summer fresh garden tomato slice bumps your standard BEC to 11 and cheddar is too greasy, it needs American, although you can get away with Colby or ColbyJack.

Im in VA. When I say hard roll people have 0 idea what it is. They say, why would someone want a roll that is hard... Yuck... blows me away. But this is the same place where people think Einstein bagels or Panera is the Shiiznits when it comes to bagels. I just laugh and keep on moving.

I'll only eat scrambled egg breakfast sandwiches. Fried eggs are wrong, although the broken yolk certainly beats the runny uncooked yolk.
