- With so many tomatoes being harvested, we have a window of opportunity to make a real classic sandwich, the Bacon Lettuce and Tomato sandwich, or BLT. I'll make the working man's BLT first, a simple but delicious sandwich with 5 ingredients. Then we will polish it up a bit and make a more developed BLT. Come along as I try to use up the tomato harvest!

L- love
T- tomatoes
I love the classic blt sandwich with salt and pepper
You’re making my mouth water and it’s bedtime!
Suddenly, it’s not time for bed 😂
Blt's are my absolute favorite!!! With fresh tomatoes 🤤
What a legend. I love when this guy posts
Thank you!
I just had a tomato sandwich it was delicious so I eat 2 more 😅, and yes staying inside is to hot to be in the garden 🪴 I’m glad you are showering what to do with all our harvest ❤
I believe you appreciate a good tomato as much as I do!! I could live off of tomatoes during the summer!! 🍅😍
The kind of sandwich that wants to wrap around your face! My face says gimme 😊
Hahaha 😅😂
I love BLTs. I made some last week. We just moved from Texas up to Missouri to take care of my mother-in-law, and I brought as much of my garden with me as i was able. Thankfully it is still producing even though I haven't gotten the plants back in their raised beds.
BLT is the best sand. We actually make our own bacon on the smoker and put that with home grown tomatoes is wonderful. We also love to make a BLT salad.
Wow!!! You make the sandwiches look delicious!
i start my seeds around St Patricks day and put them in the garden when the soil is warm enough, I fertilize with sea weed extract and watch them until they are cherry red (birds don't go after them where I am).
This first large ripe tomato of the year is a holy day in this house. BLT's are proof that God loves us!
Great looking BLTs. I like my bacon crispy. I will be trying avocado on the next one, that looked to delicious. Beautiful tomatoes, I can't wait until mine are ready. TFS 🍅🍅🥰👍
Oh, wow! Now I know what I'm doing with my first tomato of the season when it ripens. Sandwich #2. I can't wait!
One of my favorite sandwiches. Thank you for sharing. Happy Gardening 👨🏿🌾 💚
Onion is a nice addition to a BLT.
love a good BLT, I always put shade cloth over my tomatoes when it gets too hot I get a week or two more out of them. Thanks for sharing now I need a BLT.
Monster sandwich 😂
OH man my mouth is watering watching you make the second one!! I'm sure they were both delicious! Enjoy 😋!
Love your hair cut.
Sergeant Schultz haircut from "Hogan's Hero's" lol😅
😊 What a beautiful sandwich? BLT has always been a favorite in my household. Thanks for the tips to make it gourmet.
Those sandwiches look so good!
So jealous! I can't wait for my tomatoes! I'm in Illinois and it's been so cool here! They just got going! They have been at a growing standstill. But, we have plenty of time. I always toast my bread for BLTs, but, its a texture thing for me. Because I'm a weirdo about squishy bread. 😂
Now I'm hungry! Thanks, I'm having cheese ravioli 😮. Tomorrow is BLTs for lunch and supper!!
Hummus , bacon, lettuce and tomato on potato bread
You are a very super intelligent being
My grandmother just crawled out of her grave to have some of this. 😂
This is how I do it. It's worth the wait.
So yummy! Been enjoying them while I can.
Next week all tomatoes will be canned.
Blessings!
You had me at “bacon”!
I've been eating BLTs for about 3 weeks. I grill quality bread too, and kick it up with a fried egg. Who says eggs are just for breakfast? My parents grew beefsteak tomatoes in Kansas that I've never been able to duplicate. One fruit would be three or four of that big one you cut up. We had sliced tomatoes with every meal all summer. Yum!
Birds haven't been a problem for me out here in NW Harris County. As long as the bird baths are full, they leave my garden alone. The squirrels, however... they even go after the green ones. 😬
I cannot wait for my tomatoes!!! Yummmmo!!
Oh, ya!
Thanks for making me hungry at 6 am! LOL.
hi Scott love the kitchen vids
I love BLTs also, but when I have a bounty of tomatoes my go to sandwich is toasted bread, mayo, fresh tomatoes and a slice of sweet onion! It’s almost my daily lunch when my tomatoes are coming in. Yummmm
Might try that one tomorrow.
That does sound good!
My favorite sandwich. 🤤
Toasted bread is really delicious
One of my favorite summer lunches is Tomatoes, Potatoes and Cottage Cheese. I nuke some red potatoes, cut them up and melt on some butter. Pile on fresh sun-ripened tomatoes cut to bite-sized chunks, and a big scoop of cottage cheese. Add some salt and pepper. Delicious!
I’m in 4A and most of my tomato plants have blossoms or small tomatoes, but I’ll wait a have one of these sandwiches come September
Boy they look good, my mouth is watering!
Omg my mouth is also watering
Hello Scott. It's been some time since I last watched one of your video. What a great sandwich for anytime! My choice would be the first one. Though here in Rhode Island we like our bacon crispy. What a coincidence, our family ate Wonder bread while we were growing up. We lived within a block of a Wonder bread factory. It had a small store that mom would send some of us to buy bread and sometimes Hostess dessert. Great memories from back in the 50's - 70's. We had moved away in 1976. Nice hearing from you ans sharing this challenge. Be well.😃🍅🥬🥓🍞=🥪
Hopefully in 2 weeks I will have a ripe tomato 🍅 too ❤😋😋😋
Too many tomatoes. Is that really a thing? ❤
Where I live a BLT is served on toast.
Well done, Scott. I'm loving the cooking videos. You could maybe take cuttings off the Bobcat tomatoes and have late tomatoes. Just a thought.
That looks yummy.
Crispy bacon only. Lol. Looks good
I like to preslice and salt my tomatoes and let the excess moisture drain into a bowl or saucer. Makes for a less sloppy sandwich.
That's interesting. I've never had a BLT that wasn't toasted.
I am soooooo JEALOUS!!!
NE GA here…I’ve gotten 4 cherry tomatoes so far, they were delicious, hopefully get to have more and some of the larger tomatoes…but my plants are already struggling with diseases, we’ve had a lot of rain, like a LOT. Which is encouraging fungal infections. And I think a couple of my raised beds have bacterial wilt in them or something.
Have you ever struggled with any kind of wilt with your tomatoes?
Loved the video, both sandwiches looked wonderful. My preference is probably the first one. Kind of an Old timey southern thing 😊
Greetings from Lethbridge Ab 4A, I will make this tomorrow as my tomatoes are finally ready. Enjoy your videos, must be too hot to garden where your at to garden.
Ours was always done on toasted bread
Definitely.
Looks good.. I love tomatoes.. Nevertheless I always take off skin and sometimes some seeds.. Too.... Don't eat bacon... So usually add hunters beef slices.. Or Tikka.. Chicken boti
Uncured bacon
No sugar
Celery spice
No nitrates nitrites added
Yum
40 years I cooked bacon layered with paper towels on plate in microwave;
Learned I can break frozen slab in two and even cut one inch pieces…paper towels….easy peasy!
Try grilling that bread with mayo instead of butter. It's another layer of flavor as well.
I do grilled cheese that way sometimes.
Stunning!❤️
Oh, wow...your BLAT sandwich looks amazing! Now I have to wait over a month to make one. 😢 I'm in Indiana and planted late.
BLAT! Great name. 😜 I’ve never tried avocado in a BLT, but now I’ve gotta try my first BLAT-if only for the pleasure of saying that.
we just made these the other night! My tomatoes are slowing down since the heat hit full speed.
Yeah mine are not having it, looks like they are done.
Mayo and chili sauce is Russian dressing. ✌
Beautiful❤️
My mouth is watering but I’m in Italy on vacation so don’t feel sorry for me
The solonine is exponentially higher in the tomato that ripens on the counter...vs the vine. I have found if I provide a birdbath they leave my maters alone. They are thirsty...not truly after my tomato
I've provided birdbaths, kiddie pools with bird platforms, and all manner of other bird deterrents, they always come peck a nice huge hole in the ripe tomatoes, even with ample water. I'm convinced they are just jerks.
@@ScottHead crazy!!!!
Aussies don’t eat bacon sandwiches we have ham cheese & tomato toasties
Oh man….now I’m Hungry 😅
I would replace the mayo with peanut butter. I know it sounds bad, but it is soooo good! I am also not a fan of avocado.
🤨
I LOVE peanut butter & bacon sandwiches on toast! Not sure what lettuce and tomato would do in there, though. I grew up eating pb & bacon sandwiches, and was surprised as an adult to discover most people have never heard of them.
Might sound crazy... but i can only eat cherry tomatoes. Bigger tomatoes are yucky to me.
What kind of meaty tomato did you put on your bacon sandwich on Wonder Bread? Yum!
Bobcat is the variety.
Mental Note: your mayo expires in 10 months
mark it on your calendar
Iceberg lettuce is my favorite bar none. The flavor, the fresh crunch. Glad to see I'm not the only one. Also, the store has delicious mayonnaise. This looks absolutely delicious. YUMM!!!
Great video
Love it. I learned of tomato sand. At a Bible conference in N. Carolina.
I have a question please . My small garden is empty now
But I need a mulch to cover the garden. Till I plant my fall garden.Should I just sew blackeye Peas real heay till then. I min zone 9b.
That is an excellent green mulch, and you get to eat black eyed peas!
@@ScottHeadwhat?? How do you grow black-eyes peas?? I absolutely love them! 😋
I planted purple hull Peas I bought from seeds o change I allready had.
Scott I'm not familiar with the Bobcat f1 tomato. How did they stack up against the red snapper?! Any notable differences in production,taste, fruit size comparing the two?
I'll have to let you know later, I don't know which plant is my red snapper anymore, which leads me to believe it isn't a good producer. The Bobcat is a heavy producer of very large beefsteak tomatoes, and they are delicious. I'll check tomorrow if I remember and let you know about the red snappers.
@@ScottHead red snapper im familiar with. Does extremely well for me. The way you described the bobcat I kinda got excited 😆 always looking for the next best tomato variety. At first I thought it was red snapper you were slicing. very close in appearance
What variety of tomato was that really big one?
Bobcat, a determinate F1 hybrid.
