Bacon Butty

This beloved British sandwich uses a meaty cut of pork from the loin of the pig, commonly referred to in North America as back bacon. Tangy HP Sauce, a popular British condiment with a sweet, smoky flavor, makes a mouthwatering counterpoint to the salty meat. This recipe first appeared in the article Britain's Pride, in the April 2011 special Sandwich Issue.
