Steps:
- Heat the EVOO in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and shallots, stir and cook to soften, 3 minutes. Add the ketchup, stock, mustard, Worcestershire, sugar, syrup, vinegar, whiskey and some black pepper. Stir and simmer to thicken, 20 minutes. Add the Pulled Chicken to the sauce and simmer to thicken, 20 minutes. Cool and store in the refrigerator for a make-ahead meal.
- To serve, bake the bacon at 375 degrees F until crisp on a slotted pan or metal rack set into a baking sheet, for the fat to drain. Warm the saucy chicken, adding a little stock or water to loosen if necessary. Serve the chicken on the rolls with the bacon, lettuce, onions, tomatoes and pickles.
- Place the chicken in a large stockpot. Add the peppercorns, celery, garlic, bay leaf, garlic, carrots, lemons, onions and the herb bundle tied with string. Sprinkle with salt. Cover the chicken with water and bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, a rolling simmer. Simmer 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, then cool the chicken in its stock. Strain the stock, discarding the vegetables and reserve the stock for a later use. Remove the chicken in large pieces from the skin and bones. Cut half of the meat into bite-size chunks, reserving for a later use. Thinly slice or pull the remaining meat.
FRIED CHICKEN BLT MELT
Steps:
- For the honey mustard sauce: Mix together the mustard, honey and mayonnaise in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the fried chicken BLT melt: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Remove the poached chicken from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature.
- Lay the bacon slices on the prepared baking sheet and bake until crisp, about 20 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.
- Add 1 1/2 inches of oil to a high-sided cast-iron skillet (making sure you are below halfway) and heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 375 degrees F. While waiting for the oil to heat, toast the buns in the still-warm oven.
- Whisk together the flour, salt, garlic powder, paprika and black pepper in a baking dish. In a separate baking dish, whisk together the buttermilk and hot sauce. Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally. Dredge the chicken through the buttermilk, letting any excess drip off, then through the flour. Carefully place in the hot oil and fry until golden and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Cover the chicken pieces immediately with the cheese slices so they can begin to melt.
- Spread the cut sides of the buns with the honey mustard sauce. Add 2 pieces of fried chicken to each bottom bun, and top with 2 pieces of bacon, a piece of lettuce, a slice of tomato and more sauce if desired. Sandwich the buns together and enjoy.
BLT SANDWICH
A bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich is always a good idea, but come summer, it's especially brilliant. Why? Mostly because fresh, crunchy lettuce and smoky, crispy bacon are the perfect companions to ripe, juicy tomatoes. Also, because a BLT is simply irresistible and manages to be both satisfying and light all at once-exactly what you want when the weather is warm. This recipe is for the classic BLT sandwich you know and love: bacon, lettuce and tomato nestled between two slices of toasted and mayo-schmeared white bread.

CHICKEN CAESAR BLT SANDWICH
Yummy variation on a basic BLT or club sandwich. Just as nice on untoasted bread if it's nice and fresh. I prefer poached chicken as it stays beautifully moist & tender but you can also use grilled chicken, or leftover BBQ or roast chicken. I usually poach the chicken ahead of time when I'm making breakfast - boil water in the kettle, put it in a saucepan with the chicken and a little chicken stock powder, cover and let it sit in the hot water until lunchtime - it's perfectly cooked, but in no danger of being over-cooked and rubbery. I do hard-boiled eggs the same way (often at the same time in the same pan).
