Begin by cooking the bacon. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices in batches until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
While the bacon cooks, prepare the spicy mayo. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sriracha, stirring until fully blended. Set aside.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut the avocado into slices or mash it, depending on your preference.
Wash and pat dry the romaine lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato into thin slices, about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle the tomato slices with salt and black pepper to taste.
Toast the sourdough or sandwich bread slices until golden brown. For extra flavor, you can lightly butter the bread before toasting.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous layer of spicy mayo on one side of each slice of toasted bread. Layer the lettuce, tomato, bacon, and avocado slices on four of the bread slices. Top with the remaining bread slices, spicy mayo side down.
Press the sandwiches lightly and slice in half. Serve immediately and enjoy your BLTs with Avocado and Spicy Mayo!
