THE BEST BLT (BACON, LETTUCE, AND TOMATO) SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place a griddle or skillet over medium-low heat. Add bacon and place a bacon press, skillet, or masonry trowel on top of it to keep it flat as it cooks. Cook until lightly browned on first side, about 5 minutes, then flip, cover again, and continue cooking until bacon is browned on both sides and fat has rendered, about 3 minutes longer. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
• Place bread on same skillet or griddle and toast in bacon fat over medium-low heat, swirling occasionally, until evenly browned on first side. Flip and brown second side.
• Lay toasted bread on a work surface and spread mayonnaise on both top faces. Divide lettuce evenly between both pieces of bread. Layer tomato slices on 1 piece of bread and sprinkle generously with coarse salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Break bacon slices in half and layer them onto the sandwich in 2 layers of 3 half slices each, alternating the orientation of bacon in each layer for more structural stability. Close sandwich and cut in half diagonally. Serve immediately.

TEMPEH BACON BLT

Steps:

• Whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of oil, smoked paprika, salt, cayenne, cumin and black pepper in a large bowl. Add in the tempeh and gently mix to combine and coat. Place the tempeh in the fridge to marinate for at least 4 hours or up to 12 hours.
• Remove the tempeh from the marinade and set both aside. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add in the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the tempeh and cook for 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Spoon over some of the reserved marinade and allow it to cook down and coat the tempeh for about 1 to 2 minutes, flipping frequently. Set the tempeh aside.
• Assemble the sandwiches by spreading half of the sliced bread with mayonnaise and the other half with Dijon. Top with lettuce, tomato and the tempeh bacon, season with salt and pepper, cut the sandwiches in half and serve.

BACON WEAVE BLT RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. For each lattice, weave 6 strips of bacon, 3 in each direction, on the prepared baking sheet. Set an ovenproof rack upside down on the bacon to keep it flat. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the bacon, until browned and crisp. Remove the rack, then transfer the bacon lattices to paper towels to drain. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the tarragon and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the tarragon mayonnaise on each slice of toast. Arrange the sliced avocado, cucumbers and tomato on 4 slices of the toast and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with the bacon lattices, Bibb leaves and sprouts. Close the sandwiches and serve.

EXTRA-CRISPY BLT

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil, including up the sides. Arrange the bacon in a single layer on the lined sheet pan, overlapping pieces slightly, if necessary, to fit them all on the pan. Transfer to the oven and cook, without flipping, until deep golden brown and curling in spots, 15 to 25 minutes. (You can put the bacon in as the oven heats up; it will help the fat render.) Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. (You can fold and curl the pieces onto the plate; this will add more texture to the final sandwich.)
• Meanwhile, season the tomatoes with salt and pepper. Cut four 1/4-inch-thick slabs of the iceberg lettuce crosswise. (Make a wedge salad with the rest.) Toast the bread in the toaster or directly on an empty rack in the oven, flipping halfway through.
• Spread one side of the toasted bread with mayonnaise and/or mustard. Add 2 slices of tomato to half the bread slices. Top with one slab of lettuce, then add the bacon. It will be tricky to lay the bacon flat, and that's good. Arrange them irregularly, so there are pockets of air between the slices.
• Top with the remaining slices of bread. Press down slightly, cut in half and eat right away.
