Beefsteak Tomato BLTs!!

I just got back from Spiral Path farms tonight and Will Brownback told us that beefsteak tomatoes are coming our way very shortly. They are going to hit hard and fast. They are gigantic, ruby red, and super juicy. A good way to ease wary customers into eating raw tomato is BLTs.

Organic BLTs

Wegmans Organic Sourdough Loaf, sliced 1/2 inch thick (ask the bakery)
S.P. Beefsteak Tomatoes
S.P. Green Leaf Lettuce
Wegmans Organic FYFGA Uncured Apple Wood Smoked Bacon (meat)

Wegmans Organic Mayonnaise (NM/grocery)

cracked black pepper (optional)

Tools needed:

salad spinner

toaster

Cutting board

serrated knife

dinner knife for spreading mayo (plastic will do)

Baking pan + parchment sheet from kitchen

Victory wash the tomatoes and lettuce. Spin the lettuce dry and remove extra water with a paper towel. Remove core tops of tomatoes and slice them ~1/3 inch thick. Place in a cambro w/ lid. Bake the bacon on 400 F until crisp but still pliable. It shouldn't just snap when you bend it. The fat should no longer be chewy. Toast slices of the sourdough and immediately spread mayo on one side. Crack the pepper onto the slices. Build the sandwich. Bread mayo side up, lettuce, tomato, bacon slices, bread mayo side down. Slice into bite sized pieces and serve in paper cups.
