Blt With A, Or...Blat!

• The sandwich
• 3 strips slab bacon, fried crisp
• 1/2 avocado, sliced or mashed
• 1 or 2 tomato slices, about 1/2 inch thick
• 2 leaves butter or leaf or Bibb lettuce
• 2 slices good quality, sturdy wheat bread
• 2 tablespoons mayo or spicy aioli
• Spicy aioli
• 2 egg yolks
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed or roughly chopped
• 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
• 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
• 1/2 cup olive oil, more or less

1. Spread both slices of bread with spicy aioli. Top one side with lettuce leaves, concave side up. Top lettuce leaves with sliced tomato (ideally, the tomato should be of a size that one slice covers most of a slice of bread, but you may need two slices; if so, cut one in half and arrange to cover most of surface area. Perch bacon atop tomatos.
2. If the avocado is super-ripe, mash half of it and spread it on the other piece of bread. If it's still in sliceable range, slice and arrange it atop the bacon
3. Top with remaining bread slice and squash with your hand enough to get it in your mouth. You may wish to toast your bread; I prefer not to.
4. Combine egg yolks, lemon juice, garlic, mustard and horseradish in a blender or food processor. Pulse to combine. While it's running, pour in oil in a steady stream untl aioli is the consistency you want. Depending on size of eggs, you may need a little more, or you may use a little less.
