1. Remove SPAM from the can and finely chop or mince; shape into two patties. Season lightly with pepper.  
2. Heat oil and 1 tbsp (15 ml) butter in a skillet; cook SPAM patties until browned on both sides and set aside.  
3. In the same pan, add remaining butter and sauté onion until soft. Sprinkle flour and cook 1 minute, then slowly whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire to make gravy; simmer until thickened, season to taste.  
4. Fry eggs sunny-side-up or to preferred doneness.  
5. Assemble: place rice on plates, top with a SPAM patty, ladle gravy over, and crown with a fried egg. Serve immediately.
