Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the loaf of bread in two horizontally.
Arrange the two bread pieces, cut-side up.

Tips for Success:
Cut the bacon in half before you cook it. The smaller pieces will fit better when building the sandwich.
Make several of these sandwiches to feed a party crowd. One sandwich will feed approximately 6 people.
Use that serrated knife to slice the tomatoes. Your serrated knife will be your best friend to make this sandwich.
