To make 6 campfire breakfast sandwiches, combine the pork, maple syrup, dried thyme and salt in a large bowl. Using a spoon (or your hands) mix until the seasonings are evenly distributed. Divide the pork into six servings and shape into round patties. Heat half of the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook about 3 minutes per side, until the outside is browned and the inside reaches 160°F. Remove from skillet and set aside. Toast the English muffins in the skillet. Remove and set aside. Add remaining oil and cook the eggs to your liking. Top with 3 slices of Cabot Extra Sharp Cheddar Cracker Cuts per egg. Cook for an additional minute or so to melt the cheese.
To build the sandwiches set out the bottom halves of the English muffins. If desired, spread with butter, honey or spicy mayonnaise. Add the pork patties and the eggs, season with cracked pepper and salt to taste and top with the muffin tops. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Tips
Prep the sausage patties before you head out to the camp site. Freeze ahead of time so they will store well in the cooler. Or cook at home and reheat over the fire before cooking the eggs.
