It's mater time and that means bacon and tomato sandwiches. Fresh out of the garden.

Wish you could have one.

Meh, lettuce adds little flavor, it just adds a crunch and looks pretty. Ain't no reason to go out of your way to add it.

I just put some plants in the ground yesterday. I can hardly wait for some good eating in a couple of months.....if we don't get a late cold snap and they all die.

Heathens, both of you.

On second thought, OP's club sandwich is missing lettuce and turkey.

True. Alfalfa sprouts are more better anyway.

It's got home grown tomatoes and bacon.

Anyone that says it needs anything else is probably a Commie.

We won't have tomatoes for another month.

I wish I could too, looks tasty.

Hold on, folks, I see mayo on that sandwich. You can put away your pitchforks.

For me, personally, the bread would be a week-long gut-punch, so I'd put the whole thing on a lettuce wrap.

Then I would cry because I wanted it on bread.

Old school southern.

I ate so many tomatoes as a kid from my Grandparent's farm that I thought I was going to start pissing ketchup.

Posted: 5/27/2017 6:35:05 PM EDT

That looks good. Would eat.

What time will mine be ready? Your address?

I do wish I could have a garden fresh tomato. I am just getting plants in the ground this weekend.

Dat growing season tho

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Getting sick of the local Hothouse Maters.
It's been a LOOONG winter/spring.

Texas and Florida Maters carry us over until ours come in.
There is no reason to insult ones palate with Mexican or mexifornia synthetic maters...never.

Texas Beefsteak maters are almost as good as our own...just add basil and a big wedge of fresh Mozz!

I'm such a slacker, I don't even have my garden tillered yet. In my defense, my 50 year old tiller died last year and dad sold his.

It's pretty much the official Mayonnaise of the south. I'm pretty sure he has a jar.

Needs more bacon, but I would eat it in a heartbeat..very nice...

Old man's fancy--my father was big into growing tomatoes in his later years. I do not have much of a green thumb, though--I tried growing tomatoes once. Didn't turn out well. Homegrown maters beat the heck out of store bought any day of the week.

I just put 16 tomato plants in my parents today. Another 16 will go in my garden in 2 weeks.

Jelly.

I'm at least two to three here weeks out for my first cherry tomatoes. I doubt I'll have any large tomatoes before July. :-(

I've got about another week mine were a bit stunted after a mid-March freeze. The first BLT of the year is something we look forward to for sure.
