1
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.
2
Prepare the Avocado
While the bacon is cooking, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out. Slice the avocado into thin slices and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.

3
Butter the Bread
Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
4
Layer Ingredients
On the unbuttered side of two slices, layer the turkey breast, bacon, and Colby Jack cheese. Place the slices with toppings on the other two slices to form two sandwiches.

5
Grill the Sandwiches
In the skillet used for bacon, place the sandwiches, buttered side down over medium heat. Grill until the bread is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
6
Flip and Melt
Carefully flip the sandwiches, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

7
Plate the Sandwiches
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, cut them in half, and place on plates.
8
Add Avocado
Top each sandwich with sliced avocado and serve immediately.
