Tonight's Dinner Skirt steak BLT

What's Better Than A BLT?
One With SteakNothing beats a BLT on a warm spring night unless, of course, you add grilled steak to it.

I don't know about you, but I love grilling outside on a warm summer night. There's nothing better than sitting out in the back yard with a cool drink and smelling that wonderful barbeque smell -- it's the essence of summer to me.

I know BLTs have nothing to do with the grill, but they also encapsulate summer; not just because it's a sandwich, but because it's made with bacon (one of the best proteins around), fresh garden-ripe tomatoes and lettuce.

While it's a delicious sandwich no matter the season, summer is the best time for it because that's when tomatoes and lettuce are in season. And, while everyone knows a BLT alone is a perfect sandwich, Kitchen Daily made it even better by adding grilled steak. They took an amazing classic and turned it into a masterpiece waiting to be devoured.
