Farmer Boy Recipe - Not a BLT, but a BCT!

Still celebrating "Grilled Cheese Month" here!  So this is my next recipe to help with the celebration:
Farmer Boy BCT (Bacon, Cheese, Tomato)
Ingredients:
  • 2 Slices of bread
  • 1 Slicing tomato
  • 4 - 6 slices of bacon, cooked crispy
  • 2 - 4 slices of American cheese
  • 2 dollops of Thousand Island Dressing
  • melted butter
Directions: Lay out your slices of bread.  Spread dollop of dressing on each face. Place the cheese on top of the dressing.  Slice the tomato and place that on one slice of dressed bread. Arrange the bacon on top of that. Combine the 2 slices of bread.  Brush the butter on top.  Place the sandwich, upside down onto a medium hot griddle or skillet. While the first side is cooking, brush the top side with more butter. When the bottom is lightly browned, turn it over and cook the other side. Serve warm.

This is just a starting point! You can always change the variety of bread, cheese, or dressing.  I used a wheat bread here.  I enjoy a BCT, using Blue Cheese dressing too! If you desire, experiment, and then come back here and leave a comment on that. Thanks.  If this is your first time viewing my blog, please on to be a follower. And tell others too!  Thanks.

Sounds tasty. Cracker Barrel (the restaurant) used to have a really good grilled bacon and cheese sandwich (you could ask to have tomato added) on their menu. I hadn't had one in years, but my brother ordered one last time we were there and was told they were off the menu, but you could still order them in a very complicated way. We do sometimes make these...minus the tomato and dressing for my husband. :)
