Ingredients
- 6 lices Bacon
- 4 lices white bread
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
- 1 large tomato
- 1 cup iceberg lettuce
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Layer the bacon in a heavy bottom or cast iron skillet and heat to medium. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until desired crispness then drain on a paper towel-lined plate. While the bacon is cooking, thickly slice the tomato and tear off large chunks of lettuce from the head. Season the tomato slices with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Once the bacon is done, toast the bread. Slather one side of each piece of toast. Tear or cut the bacon pieces in half. Layer 6 half slices of bacon in two layers on two of the four mayo-ed toasts, alternating the direction of each layer. Top with 1 or 2 slices of tomato, and several layers of lettuce. Top with the two other slices of toast. Slice the sandwich in half and serve with potato chips.
Notes
- • Cook the bacon ahead of time, refrigerate for up to 4 days, and assemble the sandwiches on the fly.
- • For even more decadence, add a slather of butter to each piece of toast before adding the mayonaisse.
