Cooking a BLT on a Hot Plate: What You Need to Know

In summary, you can use any type of hot plate to cook a BLT as long as it has a flat surface and can reach high temperatures. You do not need any special tools or equipment, just a hot plate, frying pan, spatula, and knife. To prevent the bread from burning, adjust the temperature of the hot plate or use a non-stick pan or cooking spray. You can cook multiple BLTs at once on a hot plate as long as there is enough space and the bread slices are not overlapping. The cooking time will vary, but it generally takes 2-3 minutes for the bacon and 1-2 minutes for the bread.

Does anyone know if the BLT toss can be done on a hot plate? I find that hotplates don't heat up as much as tradition stovetops so that has me concerned. I'll do the bacon on a stone in the oven or micro pre-show...

cook the bacon in advance & you should have no problem doing it....
 
but I'd like to do the toss on a hot plate if possible.The BLT toss can be done on a hot plate, but you may need to adjust the cooking time and temperature to compensate for the lower heat output. You can also try using a cast iron skillet or griddle on the hot plate, as these retain heat better and will give you a more consistent cooking surface. Just be sure to preheat the skillet or griddle before adding the bacon and tomatoes.
