1. Place the eggs into a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
2. After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and roughly chop them.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed. Set the egg salad aside.
4. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain it on a plate lined with paper towels.
5. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, and slice the tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
6. Lightly butter one side of each bread slice. Toast the buttered side in a skillet or toaster until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
7. To assemble each sandwich, start with one slice of toasted bread (buttered side facing out). Layer a large leaf of lettuce, a few slices of tomato, 2 slices of crispy bacon, and a generous scoop of egg salad. Top with another slice of toasted bread (buttered side facing out).
8. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 4 sandwiches.
9. Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your Egg Salad BLT!
