Preparation

Step 1

DIRECTIONS

1. Heat a grill pan or medium skillet set over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the

Halved bacon strips

Cook slowly until the bacon is crisp around the edges and browned, about 4 minutes. Use the metal spatula to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Turn off the heat and pour the bacon fat into the small bowl.

2. On the cutting board, place the

Rustic white bread slices

Use a knife to spread one slice with the

Peanut butter

Spread the other slice with the

Jam

Place the bacon on top of the peanut butter half and set the other slice of bread on top so the bacon is sandwiched between the peanut butter and the jam. Use the pastry brush to coat the top slice of bread with bacon fat from the bowl.

3. Set the grill pan over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke, about 2 minutes. Place the sandwich in the pan, bacon fat-side down. Brush the top side of the bread with more bacon fat. Use the metal spatula to press down on the bread until the bottom side has grill marks, about 2 minutes. Flip the sandwich over, pressing until the other slice has grill marks and the peanut butter starts to melt, about 2 minutes more (if using a panini-style sandwich press, follow the manufacturers’ instructions for grilling the sandwich). Transfer to the cutting board, halve and serve.
