This sandwich is inspired by the heartiness of Texas cuisine, where bold flavors and big portions reign supreme.

The BLT Supreme combines the freshness of crisp lettuce and juicy tomatoes with the richness of bacon and avocado, all sandwiched between a perfectly toasted baguette. It’s the kind of sandwich that satisfies your cravings for something hearty but still fresh and vibrant.
Recipe: BLT Supreme
Ingredients:
12 to 16 slices thick-cut bacon
⅓ cup mayonnaise
1½ teaspoons minced chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 ripe avocado
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
4 leaves romaine lettuce
½ baguette, cut into 2 (8-inch) lengths, split and toasted
6 to 8 slices tomato
Instructions:
Cook the Bacon: Cook the bacon in a skillet or oven until it reaches your desired crispiness, somewhere between chewy and crisp. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease.
Prepare the Chipotle Mayo and Avocado: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced chipotle pepper, and lime juice. Mix well to create the chipotle mayo. In another bowl, coarsely mash the ripe avocado and stir in the salt and pepper. Set both aside. For the lettuce, cut the romaine leaves crosswise into ¼-inch strips.
Assemble the Sandwiches: To build each sandwich, spread a heaping tablespoon of chipotle mayo on the bottom half of the toasted baguette. Layer one fourth of the lettuce on top. Arrange 3 to 4 slices of bacon over the lettuce, then spread 2 tablespoons of mashed avocado on top of the bacon. Drizzle more chipotle mayo over the avocado, if desired. Add 3 to 4 tomato slices, another layer of lettuce, and another 3 to 4 slices of bacon. Close the sandwich with the top half of the toasted baguette.
This BLT Supreme takes the best parts of the classic BLT and turns up the flavor dial with the addition of spicy chipotle mayo and creamy avocado. The thick-cut bacon provides the salty, savory backbone of the sandwich, while the tomato and lettuce keep things fresh. The toasted baguette adds the perfect crunch to every bite, making this a sandwich that’s equal parts satisfying and delicious.
Perfect for a casual lunch or dinner, the BLT Supreme is easy to make but feels like a gourmet treat. Whether you’re serving this to friends or family or just indulging in it yourself, it’s sure to become a go-to recipe in your sandwich rotation.
