Southern BLT Ingredients

Method

Southern BLT Preparation

  1. 1

    Fry the Green Tomatoes

    Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick slices. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Dredge the tomato slices in flour and season with salt and pepper. Fry in the hot oil until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the Applewood-smoked bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the brioche bread slices until golden brown. Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice. Layer the fried green tomatoes, fresh red tomato slices, lettuce leaves, and bacon on one slice of bread. Top with the other slice, mayonnaise side down.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve with fries on the side.
