Another package or so of English muffins and I'll be ready for a job at MacDonald's

I'm getting kinda good at this
Looks good. Consider breaking up the cheese and putting on top of the egg in the ring so it will get all melty.

When I want a thick, round egg for a sandwich, be it runny, or hard yolk, I just use my poaching pan. I can make from 1 to 4 eggs at a time, and they come out perfect. Sometimes, I even make deviled eggs from the hard-poached eggs. It makes a unique presentation. And from the butter added to the poaching divets, the eggs are buttery good in flavor too.
I have egg rings that are round, and two that are heart shaped.. But DW won't eat a fried egg unless it's cooked medium over. Egg rings are hard to use if you have to flip the egg, though I can do it if I'm very careful, as the handles swivel. It's a tricky thing to do though.

I wasn't going to say anything
I just think Chief's DW deserves heart shaped eggs cooked the way she likes!

I have removed the rings before flipping, but have broken the egg yolk in the process of removing the ring. Even though they are supposed to be stick-free, the eggs stick to them. I guess I could use a butter knife, or spatula to loosen the egg sides from the rings. I'll play with it and see what works. And to everyone who played Captain Obvious here,

But that's Ok. I love all of you. But just wait till the snow falls. I'll be pointing my virtual snowball thrower your way. BT is off the hook this year. I have new targets. Muhwahahahahaha.

When I do my EMcMs in the bottomless tuna cans, after a good squirt of nonstick spray, I slightly stir, breaking the yolk a bit. Seems to help.

Couldn't you just spray the rings with a cooking spray?
I break the yolk, too.
And I was wiping the inside of the ring with oil, but setting the ring in the pan and giving it a spray of non-stick spray works much better all around. No sticking. I'm using a CI skillet so no need to worry about the cooking spray making the teflon gummy.

Egg, bacon and cheese on a toasted English muffin spread with mayo is our favorite breakfast Pac !
I've never bothered with an egg ring for the eggs though. I drop the egg into the skillet with some of the bacon fat, break the yolk and then start shoving the white into something that is "close enough" to round, and flip it over after it's set for a bit. I tear the slice of cheese into quarters to fit on the muffin better and top it with the egg and bacon. Works fine for me.

I've been putting the ring in the CI skillet and spraying some Crisco oil on it. I haven't had a stuck egg while lifting it off since. Plus it gives the cooking surface a little oil before cracking the egg. And I will be doing just that very shortly here.
