Sat in front of screen...

... & want a bacon sandwich...

[Syzygy]

For those that do, what's your ultimate bacon sandwich?

Sometimes a bacon sandwich cannot be beat; sometimes we desire it though we don't know why.

When you get the craving for one, what do you do with it?

Mine, made spontaneously & just eaten a moment ago, consisted of four pan-fried rashers of thick cut, smoked back bacon (rind trimmed before eating...) placed in two slices of hot buttered toast. One slice covered with English mustard; the other in West Indian Pepper sauce. Mmmmm!.

My fave is hot buttered toast with a layer of baby spinach & sweet chilli sauce on either side of the hot, sizziling rashers. Oh, and lots of freshly milled black pepper in between...

What else can I do with the humble bacon sandwich that you might recommend and is a favourite of yours?

uhm, now you've got me hoongry :)

I prefer mayo on toasted bread (rye or white).

also good with tomatoes (what a surprise)

peanut butter added before the bacon gets cold so the butter gets mushy

with spinach leaves and sweet/sour dressing on toast

with roast turkey breast (the real stuff, NOT that processed yuk), left over gravy, a good soft white cheese, on toast and broiled till the cheese is bubbly

I must start with at least 6 strips though so there is enough left to make a sandwich ...

Sliced avocado, bacon, thin-sliced red onion, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise... on toasted bread.

Or you can mash the avocado in with the mayo to make a spread.

Eggs anyone? I know it probably wasn't a breakfast snack - but I still think eggs need to be included in any sandwich with bacon.

[HelenDev]

mmmm.

Fried egg, bacon & brown sauce.

or

BLT (with mayo).

[limbo]

Nice.

Got to be a BLT for me.

3 Well grilled crispy back rashers, toasted malt granary loaf, sliced tomatoes (must be off the vine organic - much tastier than the tosh they supply in supermarkets), 1 crispy iceberg leaf, milled pepper and a little tommy k (heinz!). serve with fresh OJ.

Now I'm hungry!

Turkey Club - with a ton of bacon - kicks butt.

I'm with mivox, although slightly different...

Sliced avocado, bacon, thin-sliced white onion, lettuce, tomato, and white cheese on toasted bread. And on speciall ocations, I treat myself to some Prosciutto with all that... Perfectly sinful.

I bought turkey bacon once. Smelled horrible. (Is is supposed to?)

What I'd like now: Crispy bacon on a cheddar cheese grilled cheese sandwitch.

It has to be Peameal Bacon, on a fresh kaiser bun with lettuce, tomato and mayo.
A Canadian delicacy, not available in the US or anywhere else.

-definition of Peameal Bacon

Ask anyone in Canada to describe true Canadian bacon and they will tell you “peameal bacon.”

It’s made from main muscle boneless pork loins, short cut from the leaner portion of the loin to give a more uniform product. External fat is trimmed to within 1/8 inch. It is then sweet pickle cured and rolled in the traditional golden cornmeal coating, giving it the REAL Canadian bacon trademark. Then sliced and cooked on a frying pan or on the BBQ.
