of bread and top with a little lettuce. Top with three slices of tomato,
season lightly with salt and pepper, and place bacon on top of
tomatoes. Top with second slice of bread, a thin layer of mayonnaise
and a little lettuce. Heat the shrimp by placing in the warm lemon
butter. Place warmed shrimp on lettuce. Top with third slice of bread.
Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
