Smoky BBQ Bacon Melt Eat

A smoky, cheesy melt packed with brisket, sharp cheddar, and crispy bacon, finished with rich BBQ sauce and grilled to golden perfection.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices Texas toast or sourdough
  • ½ lb smoked brisket
  • 6 slices crispy bacon
  • 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp BBQ sauce
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions
 

  • Cook the bacon: Fry in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on a paper towel.
  • Warm the brisket: Heat leftover brisket in a pan over low heat with 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce for added moisture and flavor.
  • Assemble the sandwich: Butter one side of each bread slice. On the unbuttered side, layer brisket, cheddar cheese, crispy bacon, a drizzle of BBQ sauce, and another slice of cheddar. Top with another bread slice, buttered side facing out.
  • Grill to perfection: Cook in a skillet over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing lightly. Flip when golden brown and cook until the cheese melts.
  • Serve: Let cool slightly, slice, and dig into the smoky, cheesy goodness!
