A café in South Yorkshire has claimed the title for creating Britain's biggest breakfast sandwich, a behemoth of a meal containing a staggering 8,500 calories and weighing in at 9.2 pounds.
The Construction of a Colossus
Corner Kitchen in Rotherham, which has amassed a significant following on TikTok, unveiled the creation in a viral video. Owner Joz Wootton meticulously documented the assembly process, which began on 14 January 2026.
The foundation is a large, buttered white bread roll. From there, the layers build rapidly:
- 10 rashers of griddled back bacon
- 10 pork sausages, sliced and flattened
- 10 slices of Bury black pudding
- Tangy chopped tomatoes and fried mushrooms
- 3 slices of fried bread, used as a "breakwater"
- 10 hash browns and a serving of baked beans
- 6 fried eggs
- 10 herbed sausage meat patties
The entire creation is finally seasoned with salt, pepper, and a generous helping of HP Sauce before being pressed shut, causing the runny egg yolks to spill out.
Public Reaction: Awe and Appetite
The video, shared by Yorkshire Live, left viewers stunned. The reaction online was a mix of horror, admiration, and sheer disbelief at the scale of the culinary challenge.
One commenter declared the sandwich was what "heaven looks like," while another joked it "could genuinely feed me for two weeks." A particularly enthusiastic fan stated, "I would die with a big smile trying to eat all that."
However, not every component met with universal approval. Some critics took issue with specific ingredients, with one viewer claiming it was "ruined with the black pudding" and another questioning the inclusion of fried bread, calling it "absolutely criminal."
A Monument to the Full English
While perhaps not designed for everyday consumption, the sandwich stands as an extreme homage to the classic British breakfast. Corner Kitchen Rotherham has successfully generated significant buzz with this audacious food item, tapping into the popular trend of outrageous eating challenges.
The creation pushes the concept of a hearty breakfast to its absolute limit, combining virtually every element of a traditional fry-up into one overwhelming package. Whether seen as a feat of engineering or a folly of excess, Britain's biggest breakfast sandwich has certainly captured the public's imagination.
