Every single time I have ordered a BLT at a restaurant I have been disappointed. No one ever gets it right. Worst case scenario it is a tornado of microwave pre-cooked bacon, flavorless tomatoes, iceberg lettuce, and Miracle Whip on burnt Wonder bread. Best case scenario it still fucking sucks. "Well what makes your BLT so great?" Wait and motherfucking see. Let's begin:
What is this? Oh, just peppered bacon from a local deli, heirloom tomatoes from Sauvie Island, fancy pants lettuce, and real mayo on lightly toasted organic whole wheat bread. Fucking suck it, losers. Eat it.

BLT huh? Blazing new trails all the time aren't you?
Look out PB&J, here we come. The decisions will be tough..crust or no crust, strawberry or grape.
I can't wait.

Damn AA is a douche huh? I fuckin love BLTs and you're right no one ever makes them well. Where in South Florida can I find some bacon like that?
This is my third BLT post but I didn't even think of the PBJ!
He is just fucking around. I found it to be quite funny. Find your local meat market. Every city in the country has one.
What the hell is fancy pants lettuce?
You are absolutely correct that no one ever gets the BLT right in a restaurant! I think it's because the ingredients are so basic they need to be the absolute best available, and in my opinion bacon and mayonnaise need to be applied in unskimpy portions. Restaurant blts usually taste like dry toast and lettuce, with a hint of bacon and wan tomato. You may have nailed it with this version though!
I think the trick to a awesome BLT- is the bacon- and have it cooked to order. :) A
Doug Goff, I'll eat your babies bitch. You're proof that everything in Fla sucks donkeys. Get a sense of humor, you thin skinned black-sock-and-sandal wearing beachcomber.

BLT looks amazing, I'm sure it tasted delicious. You better have made your own fucking mayonnaise.
My version? Thick-cut bacon from the meat market, home-grown roma tomatoes and romaine, toasted home-made sourdough and real mayo, made from scratch.
Worth. The. Effort!
=^..^=
I got this "artisan lettuce." I don't fucking know either but it's good.
Damn right! There is never enough bacon.
That is hard to find in most places.
Nice.
I also tended the chickens that laid the eggs for the mayo!
That sounds really freaking good.
Ohhh Mannnnn.. U should have entered this into my sandwich contest last month. Looks beautiful!

This would have been a pretty weak entry.
BLT is how I test a a new place. If they F it up then I'm not going to want to go there, if I have to go there to please the wife then I'll order a burger. I love the BLAT a BLT with ripe avocado. Just to let you know there are some good spots in Santa Barbara for BLTs and I've found a spot or two in Eastbay SF.
There is never enough bacon...
I would ask for the names of the places but I am in Portland.
