A friend of mine brought me a very large yellow tomato from his garden. I got up this morning and drove to a small family owned butcher shop and bought 2 pounds of their "house" bacon. Daughter drove the other direction and got me a loaf of white bread and a fresh head of lettuce. This evening had two Dagwood style BLTs for dinner, with mayo of course, and i am very happy. A pint of my own British style ale around dark and it will conclude a great day.

I really like the yellow tomatoes. Congrats!
Every once in awhile I get the hankering for a BLT. Large loaf of Italian bread. Big tomato, and half pound of bacon. Only use one half of the Italian bread. Slobber on some real mayo, lettuce,bacon and tomato with a large glass of iced tea no sugar or lemon. Yum yum. Frank
Entirely too much lettuce.
More bacon less lettuce.
We just had BLTs with fresh tomatoes from the garden .
Yummy....dale
Aren't they great!?
I just finished eating one. I have 4 tomatoes left on the counter. That is the end of this years crop, next years is a long way off.

Had 6 BLTs the last 2 weeks

BLT's are so good when everything is fresh!!!
I've got a dozen or so fat tomatoes out there just about to start to ripen. I can't wait for my annual BLT fest.....

Your First BLT !!!!!
Sadly my tomato's , like farmerjim's, are all over and done. Only two tomatoes remain in the ice box. I did can (jar) and freeze plenty to use in cooking during the winter but no more BLT's .
Kind of sad....but I ate so many BLT's this year that I should be able to make it until next season.

Everything is better with bacon, well most things.BLT mummmm
First BLT, tomato AND lettuce form my garden! Fresh baked bread from flour I ground and sifted to get the bran out(I wanted softer squishy bread)... TASTY!
Haven't had a BLT in a long time.
Might have to make some tomorrow.
Doctor said to stay away from white bread, so i wonder how it will taste on wheat bread.
I never use anything BUT wheat bread. Do it to it!

My first beefsteak tomato is pinking up nice. This afternoon or tomorrow.........
I doubt it will survive long enough to make it into an actual sammich.

Just for a change you guys might like to try your BLT with rye bread.
BLT with toasted sourdough is good stuff too!
Sap beetles are doing a number on my tomatoes... only one variety they barely touch...
