Ingredients (Makes 3 to 4 Sandwiches):
Directions
Preparations:
In a large, heavy skillet, heat about 2 tablespoons olive oil, over a medium high, gas grill burner. Add bacon and pan fry until crispy. This process may need to be done in two or more batches based on pan size.
Transfer cooked bacon to a paper lined platter and let rest for a minute. Place the bacon on a cutting board and chop coarsely (this makes it easier to eat).
Preheat gas grill to medium heat, around 350°.
While the grill is heating, generously brush the outside of the sandwich buns with olive oil and place the oiled side on a cookie sheet. Spread the inside of the buns with the basil pesto, and then layer each side with cheese. Divide and place the chopped bacon on one side of the buns and layer the other side with the sliced tomatoes and then the avocado.
Place the cookie sheet on the pre-heated grill and close the lid. Grill for about 6 minutes or until the bottom of the buns are browned and crispy.
Remove the cookie sheet from the grill. Place the bacon side on top of the tomato avocado side and gently press together. Cut in half and serve.

How is the buffalo “bacon” cured? Any nitrates used?
