The World's Best B L T Sandwich image

So simple, and yet so many subtle differences transform "good" to "world's best." the way a sandwich is assembled is key to how good it tastes. A gread sandwich is never dry (too bready). I pull out and discard all the soft white centers from baguettes, leaving two cano-shaped halves. This hollowed out bread is then packed full and doused with a generous splash of "house" dressing. Closing one of these sandwiches is like shutting an overpacked suitcase!

I would not recommend this sandwich. The bacon was undercooked and the bread was soggy.

This sandwich was just okay. The bacon was a little too salty and the bread was a little too dry.

I'm not a big fan of BLT sandwiches, but this one was really good. The bacon was crispy and the lettuce and tomato were fresh.

I've made this sandwich many times and it's always a hit. The key is to use good quality ingredients. I recommend using thick-cut bacon and ripe tomatoes.

I made this sandwich for my family and they loved it! The bacon was crispy and the avocado added a creamy texture. I will definitely be making this sandwich again.
