As the weather gets warmer, this BLT & Bourbon Board is an easy and delicious option for backyard gatherings, Father’s Day, graduation parties, and so much more!

These are Simon’s two favorite things so I decided to create an easy lunch idea with them!

Ingredients

There are so many different toppings to add to a BLT but some of our favorites are:

bacon or turkey bacon
lettuce
tomatoes
avocado
egg
beets
red onion
pickles
cheddar cheese
turkey
bread
Sauces such as mayo, mustard, ketchup, barbecue sauce, etc.
Optional: Bourbon

Directions

When making this BLT & Bourbon Board, make sure you add the hot items last and serve near a toaster to toast the bread before making!

Toast preferred bread and arrange around the base of the serving board.
Fill in the board with the larger items first (such as bacon), followed by the smaller items (such as red onion.)
Enjoy!

Perfect Presentation Platters

Round Trays: I used this round wooden Target tray, which I get so much use out of year-round! I also love this White Reclaimed Wood Pizza Board and this Lazy Susan version that is so convenient. For a higher-end round tray, I love my MacKenzie-Childs checkered party tray.

Rectangular Trays: If you’d like a rectangular wooden tray, this wooden version from Target is great, as well as this beautiful choice from Etsy.

Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are this checkered chopping board that I used for this recipe, my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.

Here’s a Quick Video Tutorial!

Can I Prep This BLT & Bourbon Ahead of Time?

Yes! You can wash and slice the vegetables and cook bacon or turkey bacon 1-2 days in advance. Wait to toast the bread until right before serving time. 🙂

Storing Leftovers

Store any veggies, cheese, or meat in Ziploc Bags/Tupperware containers and store in the fridge, where it should stay fresh for several days. Keep any leftover bread in a Ziploc bag and store at room temperature.

Enjoy!
