Step 1: Cook the bacon slowly in a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels.
Step 2: Add the shrimp to the bacon fat remaining in the skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning once, until just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove shrimp, let cool and peel.
Step 3: Slice the tomatoes and sprinkle with salt.
Step 4: Lightly toast the sour dough bread. Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice. Place a lettuce leaf, a tomato slice, and two slices of bacon on 6 slices of the toast. Top with shrimp, dividing them equally, and then top with remaining toasts. Cut diagonally in half and serve. Enjoy!
Step 5: Juice the lemon. Pour the corn or peanut oil and the olive oil into a measuring cup or a pitcher with a narrow spout. in a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together, then whisk for 3 minutes. Dribble in a few teaspoons of of the oil mixture until the sauce begins to emulsify. Still whisking, drizzle in the rest of the oil in a very thin stream-NOT TOO FAST, or the mayonnaise will break, or curdle. The mayonnaise should be quite stiff. Season to taste with Tabasco.
