# Ingredients You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 slices thick-cut bacon
02 -
2 slices sturdy sandwich bread
03 -
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
04 -
4 slices dill pickles
05 -
2 slices Swiss cheese
06 -
2 slices sharp cheddar cheese
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Fry the bacon in a heavy skillet over medium heat for about 6 minutes, turning once, until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels.
02 -
Spread a thin, even layer of softened butter on one side of each bread slice.
03 -
Place one slice of bread buttered side down in a preheated skillet. Layer with cheddar, bacon, pickles, Swiss, then top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up. Press gently with a spatula.
04 -
Cook over medium-low heat for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing lightly, until the bread is deep golden and crisp and the cheese is melted.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
For extra melt, layer cheese slices on both sides of the bacon and pickles.
02 -
Let the sandwich rest for 1 minute before slicing so the cheese sets slightly.
03 -
Reheat leftovers in a dry skillet to restore crispness and prevent sogginess.
