  2. Bake beef bacon on another baking sheet at 400-425°F (200-220°C) for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway until crisp.
  3. Set up a double boiler. Whisk egg yolks, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice until thick. Gradually drizzle in melted unsalted butter while whisking until velvety. Stir in cayenne pepper.
  4. Bring water to a gentle simmer in a pot. Add vinegar and poach eggs for 3-4 minutes until whites are set and yolks are runny.
  5. Assemble plates with hash browns, sprinkle cheese, pour gravy, drizzle hollandaise, add beef bacon, and top with poached eggs. Garnish with chives or parsley.
