Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat over medium heat and add thick-cut bacon. Cook for 6-8 minutes until the bacon is almost crisp, turning occasionally.
  2. Brush the cooked bacon with your favorite BBQ sauce, ensuring each slice is well-coated. Return the glazed bacon to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, flipping once.
  3. Melt a tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Place the sandwich buns cut-side down and toast them for about 2-3 minutes until golden and crisp.
  4. Layer cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Broil for about 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Layer each bun bottom with melted cheese, followed by BBQ-glazed bacon, fresh tomato slices, and shredded lettuce. Drizzle ranch dressing on top.
  6. Place the top half of the bun on each sandwich. Serve immediately while warm and crispy. Offer additional BBQ sauce or ranch dressing on the side.
