- Toast the garlic bread until it is golden brown and crispy. This will help it hold up to the other ingredients.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the bacon. This will cause it to steam instead of fry, resulting in limp bacon.
- Cook the bacon until it is crispy, but not burnt. Burnt bacon will add a bitter flavor to the melt.
- Use a good quality cheese that melts well. Sharp cheddar is a classic choice, but you can also use other cheeses, such as Monterey Jack, Gruyère, or Swiss.
- Slice the tomatoes thinly so that they cook evenly.
- Broil the melt until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on it so that it doesn't burn.
