There’s a blt, and then there is a blat. There’s a blat, and then there’s a fancy blat. And then we throw it all up in the air by slow braising steak cut bacon, pork belly style, replace the lettuce with a micro green salad, ramp up the mayo into a basil aioli, use heirloom tomatoes, and top the whole darn thing with a fried egg. Oh, and then we stack it all up in some sliced brioche. Let me tell you. That this, is the play. This is the sandwich that is going to ruin all plain old regular blts for you in the future.
