Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the slices of hickory smoked bacon. Cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Once done, place the bacon on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the bacon is cooking, wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Slice the large tomato into medium-thick slices.

  3. 3

    Toast the Bread

    In the same skillet, or using a toaster, toast the sourdough bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Spread Mayonnaise

    Take two slices of the toasted sourdough bread and spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each slice.

  2. 5

    Layer Ingredients

    On one slice of bread with mayonnaise, layer the crispy bacon, followed by the lettuce leaves, and finally the tomato slices. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper on the tomato.

  3. 6

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the second slice of mayonnaise-covered bread, mayo side down. Press gently to hold the sandwich together.

Serving

  1. 7

    Cut and Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately, optionally with a side of chips or pickles.
