01 -

The triple decker construction means every bite hits all three flavor layers at once
Crisp bacon and creamy avocado create that perfect salty rich contrast that makes California cuisine sing

02 -

Wooden picks are nonnegotiable for these towering beauties, or you'll have a structural collapse on your plate
Assembly order matters more than you'd think, with the sturdier ingredients anchoring the delicate tomato layer

03 -

Place a damp paper towel under your cutting board to keep it from sliding while you slice those tall sandwiches
Use a serrated knife and saw gently through the layers instead of pressing down, which squishes everything flat
