Tips from the kitchen

Toast the bread until it's properly crisp before buttering. A soft slice in the middle gets soggy fast once the mayo and tomato go on.
Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel before they go in. They hold a lot of water and it soaks straight into the bread otherwise.
Cook the bacon until it's stiff, not floppy. You want it to snap a little, since it has to hold up under the second deck of bread.
Push the toothpicks all the way down through to the bottom slice before you cut. Then slice between them so each triangle stays held together.
Build it and eat it. A club like this is at its best within a few minutes, so have everything else on the table ready to go first.

Ways to vary it

Swap the turkey for sliced chicken breast if that's what you have. It sits in the same spot and works the same way.
If you like a little heat, mix a spoon of sriracha or some chipotle into the mayonnaise before you spread it.
Avocado mashed onto the middle slice instead of one of the meats is a nice option if you want it a bit lighter.

Storage & leftovers

This one really wants to be eaten right away, since the toast goes soft and the bacon loses its crunch within an hour or two. If you must hold it, wrap it tight and keep it in the fridge for up to a day, but expect a softer sandwich. Don't freeze it, and skip reheating since the cold fillings and warm toast don't survive a microwave well.

What to serve with it

A handful of salted chips or some fries on the side, and a dill pickle spear to cut through all that mayo and bacon.
