The Club Sandwich & BLT
BLT
The packaged BLT of British chiller shelves: smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise in soft bread triangles, ranked first among fillings by the British Sandwich Association in 2013.
BLT (British)
Bacon, lettuce, and tomato with mayonnaise on toasted bread; American classic adopted in UK.
BLAT
Ripe avocado added to bacon, lettuce and tomato on toast: warm toast, cold salad, and a soft green layer that lines the crumb against the tomato's juice.
Monte Cristo
A deli ham-and-cheese sealed shut, dipped in egg batter, deep-fried until the Swiss runs molten, then finished with powdered sugar and jam. The savory sandwich plated like dessert.
Fried Green Tomato BLT
BLT variation with fried green tomatoes instead of (or with) fresh.
Dagwood Sandwich
A skewer through the top is the only thing keeping the tower upright. The Dagwood stacks cold cuts, cheese, vegetables, and a whole pickle until it has to be flattened by hand to eat.
Club Sandwich
The defining feature of a club sandwich is the slice of toast nobody eats around: the third one, through the middle, a structural beam that braces the tower and keeps the wet layers from the dry.
California Club
Club sandwich with avocado and sometimes sprouts.
BLT
Cut a ripe tomato and time it; within minutes it runs. The BLT is built against that clock, four parts with nothing to hide behind, best the instant it is made and declining from there.
