Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick-cut bacon
- 4 slices Bread
- 4 slices Sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 2
Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and black pepper. Set aside.
Step 4
Butter one side of each bread slice. Spread the mustard-mayo mixture on the unbuttered side of each slice.
Step 5
Lay two slices of bread, buttered-side down, onto the skillet. Top each slice with one slice of cheddar cheese, two slices of bacon, and another slice of cheddar cheese.
Step 6
Place the remaining bread slices, mustard side down, on top of the fillings to form two sandwiches.
Step 7
Cook sandwiches until golden brown and crispy on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.
Step 8
Remove from the skillet and let the sandwiches cool slightly on a cutting board for 1-2 minutes. Slice in half and serve warm.
