Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick-cut bacon
- 2 slices Bread (sourdough or your choice)
- 2 slices Sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 medium Fresh tomato
- 1.5 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place the bacon slices in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally, until crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
While the bacon cooks, slice the tomato into thin rounds and lightly sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper to enhance flavor.
Spread mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice.
Heat another skillet or use the same cleaned skillet over medium-low heat. Add half of the butter and let it melt.
Place one bread slice (mayonnaise-side down) on the skillet. Layer with one slice of cheese, the cooked bacon slices, tomato rounds, and the second slice of cheese. Top with the second bread slice (mayonnaise-side up).
Cook the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing gently with a spatula to help the cheese melt. Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula.
Add the remaining butter to the skillet and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Grilled B C T!
