Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices thick-cut bacon
  • 4 slices sourdough bread
  • 4 tablespoons butter softened
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise optional
  • 4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese shredded (about 1 cup)
  • 4 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded (about 1 cup)
  • 1 large ripe tomato sliced
  • 4-8 leaves butter lettuce

Instructions
 

  • Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Prep the Bread: Spread softened butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. If using mayonnaise, spread it on the other side of each slice.
  • Assemble the Sandwiches: Place a slice of bread, butter-side down, on a cutting board. Layer with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, 4 slices of bacon, tomato slices, and butter lettuce. Top with another slice of bread, butter-side up. Repeat for the second sandwich.
  • Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted. Press gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice them in half, and serve immediately. Pair with chips, soup, or a salad for a complete meal.
