Preheat oven to 400 F and line rimmed baking sheet with foil. Arrange bacon on foil. Bake about 15 minutes, until crispy. Drain bacon, cut in half. In small bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Place crackers in another bowl and beaten eggs in third bowl. Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Dip tomato slices in eggs to coat, then in flour mixture. Dip floured tomatoes back in eggs, then in crackers. Place coated tomatoes in skillet. Fry until crispy golden–brown on each side, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Add more butter to pan if needed. Before removing tomatoes, add cheese to each tomato slice, then melt. Drain tomatoes on paper towels. Lay 4 slices of toast on work surface. Spread with mayonnaise, top with tomatoes, bacon and lettuce. Salt and pepper to taste. Close sandwiches, cut in half and serve.
