Step-by-Step Instructions for Cowboy Club Sandwich
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the thick-cut bacon in a single layer on the sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping. Bake for 15-20 minutes until crispy and golden, monitoring towards the end to prevent overcooking.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine your favorite BBQ sauce with mayonnaise until well blended. Set aside.
  3. Take your slices of sourdough bread and lightly butter one side of each slice.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the buttered side of the sourdough down in the pan. Add a slice of cheddar cheese to each piece.
  5. Spread the BBQ-mayo mix on the other two slices of bread. Layer sliced avocado, fresh tomato, crispy bacon, and crunchy romaine lettuce over the chicken.
  6. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and freshly cracked pepper over the top layers of the sandwich.
  7. Place the remaining slices of sourdough on top, buttered side up. Press down gently to compact the sandwich.
  8. Carefully flip the assembled sandwiches in the skillet so that the buttered side is down. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Flip again and grill the other side.
  9. Once both sides are browned, remove the sandwiches from the skillet and slice each Cowboy Club Sandwich diagonally.
