I think this is correct though sometimes DH and I will be able to stretch 5 leftover slices of bacon to two BLTs if you are careful with proportions (don't overload with lettuce and tomato) and supplement with some tots.

Enough to cover the surface of the sandwich twice, one layer going vertically and the other horizontally

OP - I’m asking how many full slices regardless of whether you break them in half. Asking because I’m going to make this for a casual lunch for family houseguests and not sure of quantities.

My DH has six half slices and I have four.

Are these full slices, or half slices? 5 half slices— 4 across in one layer and one extra because.

2 or 3 slices, crispy and broken in half.

Are you breaking them in half? Are you placing some perpendicular or all side-by-side? Are they crispy or “flaccid”?

How many are in a package of bacon? That many.

You measure that with your heart.

(I mean, is there a wrong answer when it comes to bacon?)

How many slices of bacon go on a BLT?
