Worlds Greatest Sandwich

Have you ever had the Worlds Greatest Sandwich? Well, this recipe which was featured in the movie “Spanglish” with Adam Sandler, is just that. I found the video and thought I'd share it with you.

I will definitely try it out on my husband. He loves BLT's and I know he'll enjoy this one. Why don't you try it as well then leave a comment to let us know how you liked it. I would try it, but I can't eat bacon. (I may try it with a bit of pan-fried turkey or chicken breast – I'll let you know.)

Worlds Greatest Sandwich

How do you make the Worlds Greatest Sandwich? First, we need to gather all of our ingredients. 

Step 1: Bacon Bliss

• Grab those thick slices of bacon and lay them in a cold skillet. Turn the heat up to medium and let them sizzle away.
• Watch the magic happen as they crisp up, turning a beautiful golden brown. Ah, the delightful aroma of bacon cooking! Who could ever resist that. Hopefully it doesn't wake everyone else up, especially if you're not ready to share...
• Once your slices are crispy and perfect, transfer the bacon to a paper towel to drain off the excess grease. Set aside and try not to nibble on too many pieces or else you won't have enough for your sandwich.

Step 2: Cheese, Please!

• Take one slice of that glorious Pain de Campagne and lay the Monterey Jack cheese slices on top.
• Pop it into a toaster oven or under a broiler. Keep an eye on it, though. You want your cheese to melt into gooey perfection. Try not to get lost in a cheese daydream, which is so easy to do if you don't focus!

Step 3: Mayo Magic

• On the other slice of toasted bread, spread a generous tablespoon of mayonnaise. Coat it all the way to the edges. And if you need a little more, don't be afraid to dip into that jar again.

Step 4: Pile It Up

• Start stacking: first lay down the crispy bacon, then layer fresh tomato slices on top. I always sprinkle a little pepper on my tomatoes, but that's up to you.
• Add on the butter lettuce leaves next to crown this mouthwatering creation.

Step 5: Egg-citing Finale

• In a nonstick skillet, melt a teaspoon of butter over medium heat. Watch the butter so it doesn't burn.
• Crack an egg into the skillet and fry until the white is set but the yolk is still runny (trust us, the runny yolk is the golden ticket).
• Carefully flip the egg for just a moment to seal the deal.

Step 6: The Grand Assembly

• Gently slide the fried egg onto the lettuce. This is the crowning glory (it is golden, right?)
• And lastly, take the toast with melted cheese and place it cheese-side down on top of the egg. Congratulations, you’ve built a sandwich masterpiece!

Step 7: The Glorious Cut

• What's next? Prepare to eat it of course. Place the sandwich on a plate and with a sharp knife, carefully cut it in half. Watch as the yolk oozes down, making it look like a sandwich from a dream.

Step 8: Enjoy!

• Dig in and relish every delicious bite of this late-night sandwich. After all of the prep and waiting for everything to cook, you’ve definitely earned it!

Bon appétit!

This combination of ingredients makes one mouth-watering late-night sandwich. Happy munching!
