At Jasper’s, chef Dustin Pustka combines two signature dishes to create the eatery’s most popular item on the brunch menu: the Crabcake “Benedict,” $15.

The dish substitutes a traditional English muffin with a homemade potato leek cake made with Yukon gold potatoes, leeks, garlic and shallots.

The potato leek cake is then topped with a thick slice of Hormel’s Cure 81 boneless ham and a signature crabcake made with bacon, Creole mustard, jalapeno and poblano peppers. The dish is then topped with two poached eggs and dressed with a lemon-herb hollandaise sauce.

“Our founding chef was very big into Southwestern, homestyle cooking, and he wanted to take the dishes he grew up eating and make them a little bit nicer,” Pustka said. “I think that’s why the Crabcake ‘Benedict’ is our No. 1 seller at brunch—because it’s different.”
