Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook the Bacon: Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon strips and cook for 6–8 minutes until they are nearly crisp and golden brown.
  2. Glaze the Bacon: Once cooked, brush both sides with BBQ sauce and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes until the glaze caramelizes slightly.
  3. Drain the Bacon: Remove the bacon and allow to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. Toast the Buns: In the same skillet, melt butter and toast the brioche buns, cut-side down for 2–3 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. Melt the Cheese: Place slices of cheddar on the bottom half of each toasted bun and broil until melted, about 1–2 minutes.
  6. Assemble the Sandwich: Layer with melted cheese, BBQ-glazed bacon, tomato slices, shredded lettuce, and ranch dressing.
  7. Complete and Serve: Close with the top bun and serve immediately, providing extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
