What Makes Your "Best" 2012 BLT or Something Similar?

That's really pretty, Chris.

It really does depend on having the best ingredients, doesn't it? A winter BLT just isn't right, because the tomatoes won't hold up their end of the show.

Bacon, sucrine lettuce and slow-roasted Campari cherry tomato sandwich, with Dijon-herb aioli on toasted sourdough bread

Technically something I made last year, but it's now my #1 'go-to' BLT. #2 uses grilled white peaches instead of the tomato. Bacon from Flying Pig Farms at USGM.

Time travel 2025

 

I overbought bacon (I know, is there such a thing) from D'Artagnan when they had a more generous than normal sale.   My Mom loves their end and pieces, so I rounded out the order with slab for me that I wasn't sure I needed.  Mom loved the gift of her ends and pieces.

 

Sliced medium thick and oven baked, paired with halved Costco cherry tomatoes that I fried to softness in the bacon fat, on some random storebought sourdough.  No lettuce on mine thanks, or mayo.   Havarti cheese was added to the Households sandwiches by request.

 

Those bacon fat fried softened cherry tomatoes.......OMG.........so intense.   The bacon was worth the premium price (love you Mom) too.
