Possum's BLT Sammich
"I first made these just before Thanksgiving, and for my first foray into BLTs, the family said I did a pretty good job! This isn't *exactly* how I prepared them -- I added a LOT of black pepper to the bacon, as well as a generous helping of "Dinosaur BBQ Cajun Spice Rub" to it (we tend to like our bacon a bit spicy!); I also used different amounts of mayo and different kinds of cheese depending on who I was making the sammiches for. The bread I used wasn't the usual loaf of "Wonder Bread"-ish bread, but a loaf of that rectangular-shaped multi-grain bread. Experiment with the bread, the cheese, and how much & what kind of spices to add to the bacon."

This was a nice way to have a BLT. Loved the peppered bacon. I used regular wheat bread which is what I had and only one slice of cheese. Very nice. I really like my BLT's on toasted bread, but it wasn't bad this way either. Thanks Made for PAC Fall 08
