We tried the BLT recipe from Reba Mcentire, and it is nothing we expected

Reba Mcentire Opened her first restaurant, Reba’s Place, in Oklahoma in 2023 – and since then it has been a hit. Google reviews are filled with hundreds of five-star reviews, with fans raving about the food, the atmosphere and of course the reba reminder.

Since I heard the news that the beloved country star was open a restaurant This shows live music and some Down-Home Comfort FoodI wanted to try it out. However, I haven’t found myself in ATOKA, Oklahoma in recent years.

So if our sister brand, “People,” I got a recipe at home for one of the elements on the menu in my hands, I knew I had to try it out. And when it was just like that, it was one BLT recipe– one of my favorite -fast and simple summer -sandwiches – I was even more excited.

How to make the BLT -Sandwich of the Reba

Surprisingly, Reba’s place does not make the menu easy to find online. They contain neither the official website nor the social media pages of the restaurant. So when I wanted to see what was offered, I had to search Facebook check-ins while some users had posted photos of the menu.

In the early days of the restaurant, A Facebook user divided a snapshot with a BLT -sandwich from “Small Batch Applewood Smoked Speck, Erbstück Tomate, leaf salad,” Aioli on cracked wheat bread “. But a few months later, a few months later, another user Published an updated menu and found that the BLT had disappeared. It seems that the sandwich could be a seasonal object – main Tomato season.

After this was said, “humans” shared the recipe of the sandwich, which is most remarkable for its “BLT” -aiioli – with garlic confit, tomato paste, egg yolk, rapeseed oil, bacon, basil and salt.

To make the sandwich, you will make one Knoblauch Confit With olive oil and a garlic head. Then, after the garlic confit has cooled completely (so that it does not have the egg yolk), combine the cloves of garlic with the egg yolk and the tomato paste and then slowly add the oils to create a Mayo consistency. Add the chopped cooked bacon, basil leaves and salt – then you can put together the sandwich.

For assembly, a piece of roasted bread with the signature AioliA few slices of tomatoes, a few bacon pieces and salad, then cover them with the second piece of roasted bread. At Reba all sandwiches are served with Homemade cucumbers And Russet potato friesBut you can serve your version with everything you like.

We tried the BLT -Sandwich of the Reba

Don’t get me wrong, this sandwich was delicious, but man, it was a lot of work for a BLT. I love a BLT because it’s so easy – bacon, salad, tomato, A kind of MayoAnd your favorite bread. The “hardest” thing on the sandwich should be All your bacon cook So it is crispy – and not to eat all stripes before the meeting.

So it was a bit disappointing to make garlic confit and homemade Aioli, which took about two hours. Sure, after you have found that you like the recipe, you could probably divide the Aioli later for easy assembly, but two hours are a lot of time for an Aioli that you can only use for a sandwich (because I can cut the recipe into half to create only one). Again the Aioli Was Really delicious.

For someone who sings about the “single mother who works two jobs”, Mcentire has forgotten her target group here. So I think that at the end of the day I would keep myself to order this BLT from Rebas’s actual place and do mine Favorite recipe for celebrity -Blt (Joanna Gaines’) instead.
