BLT's rock

I agree. I dont like crisp bacon unless its used in a sammy. I either fry my own smoked bacon or thick cut from a butcher. I also like side pork and except for sandwiches, I would rather just warm it in a frying pan and still flexible. My wife however likes it burnt.

Yummmmmm! Now I have to have BLTs for dinner tonight too! I haven't had bacon for a few months...I think it is overdue!

 

I laughed.

 

Agree with your thinking on bacon. Only other time I like my pork heavily cooked is BBQ pork burnt ends--perhaps an acquired taste, from time spent in KC.

 

A good quality cured then smoked bacon, cooked but not burnt...set to drain on paper towels.
A hearty ciabatta roll lightly toasted. Fresh romain lettuce, thin slices of a almost seedless tomato..say a San Marzano...then a little creamed horseradish sauce or mayo.

 

I like you trial. Me and you could eat together.

 

You had me until you said Miracle Whip...McAlister's has a pretty damn good BLT if anyone has ever been there, add a little potato salad and a ice cold glass of sweet tea and you got summer in a meal :D

 

I’ll agree with the potato salad but I cant stand tea (hot, cold, sweet, etc) Ive tried varieties of tea in several states but just don’t like it. I keep trying to like it. Having raised kids, I know what a urine filled diaper smells like and it smells like tea. Upon tasting several teas, I would imagine that would be what a urine filled diaper would taste like. I’ve tried tea in TX, AL, GA, etc. No thanks. I'll stick with lemonaid.

As to Miracle Whip, It seems to be a northern thing. We like it up here much more than mayo and we of course are correct and everybody else is wrong. (but I think that is the norm and goes without saying)

My father grows some kick arse horseradish and makes his own grated variety and it rocks. It does a good job of cleaning out the sinuses. Mix it with a little Miracle Whip and you got an outstanding sandwich spread.

I'm with this on all counts....... especially the tea!

 

I like you GregH. You are correct. You and I could share a meal.

 

I don't like tea either. Can we share a meal together? I'll pop a nice cab, a little music, a little dancing, who knows what might happen

 

I dont understand your counter culture slang. There is a guy from MI, that might take you up on your offer.

 

better?

 

Better than what?

 

If RC brings over a bottle of 08 Hall, you can skip the music and dancing .

 

Who's BLT and what's so special about his rock?

 

Is not so much a “Who” as it is a “what”

The B stands for the most perfect, cured smoked, meat on the planet. BACON

The L stands for the crunchy filler LETTUCE

The T stands for vine ripened, jumbo beefsteak TOMATOES

To round it out to perfection you would add an “M” for the tangy zip of Miracle Whip. (if you wanted to do it correctly), or if all you got is mayo, that will do in a pinch.

Place it all between two pieces of toasted multi grain, whole wheat bread and add a lemonade and

BAM!

Rockin good time.

 

I ate 2 of them tonight for supper! Lettuce, Bacon, a huge slice of tomato on toasted wheat bread with miracle whip.

 

Congrats. You sir are living the high life. Living life as it was meant to be lived. That tangy zip is the cherry on the top of life's Sundae.

 

I just like bacon on buttered toast=Bacon Sandwich. Plain no veggies either
