BLT Sandwich

The simplest sandwich, and the easiest one to do badly. Three rules: thinner bacon over thick-cut (it shatters in your teeth instead of resisting), butter or mayo-toasted bread over plain (the fat seals the bread against tomato juice), and ripe in-season tomatoes over greenhouse mushy ones — when tomatoes aren't great, make something else.
