Last night I made a sandwich. No, it wasn't a sandwich. That would be like calling A 7 million ton cruise ship with 15 restaurants, 18 swimming pools, 4 beauty salons, 8 butcher shops, 2 locksmiths, a tantric sex school, and a homeless shelter a dinghy. This was like a dagwood but better. I cut open a nice sourdough roll and spread on some Dijon, then put a layer of arugula. I topped that with some hot, cripsy, greasy bacon. Then I got out an avocado and smooshed it on there. Finally, for good measure I threw in some anchovies, salt, and freshly ground pepper. That makes it a Bacon, Avocado, Anchovy, Arugula, Dijon sandwich. In the same genus as a BLT, but a different species, we call it a BAAAD sandwich for short. I highly recommend them if you, like me, don't have enough salt and fat in your diet (can you ever have enough?). There are other things you can do to make yours more or less BAAAD. Adding artichoke hearts or Asparagus for example would make it BAAAADer, and Adding Ahi tuna steak would make it go from BAAAD to worse.
Ok. I think I've abused this sorry excuse for a sandwich joke enough. I was serious about the sandwich though, it is good. Try it. Maybe some lemon juice would be good too? I don't know. Buon Apetito.
Sorry about the picture, I'm not trying to pay homage to japaneese woodblock prints by cutting off the subject in the foreground, it's just that I broke the viewfinder on my camera and composing shots is hard.

A Mofo, at our BBQ Shop is a real big ass Mofo. I don't think yours was so bad sounding.
My nephew came up with ours. Its a pound of meat. 1/2 Pound of smokey Beef Brisket sliced paper thin. and then 1/2 pound of Smokey and tangy Pulled Pork topped with our Ribslayer BBQ Sauce.
