Cheddar-Stuffed BBQ Bacon Bombs: An Incredible Amazing Recipe


  • Author: Olivia Turner
  • Total Time: 25 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 pound bacon (thick-cut is best)
– 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Cheddar-Stuffed BBQ Bacon Bombs:

1. Preheat Oven or Grill: If using an oven, preheat to 375°F (190°C). If grilling, preheat your grill to medium heat.
2. Prepare the Meat Mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
3. Form Meatballs: Take a handful of beef mixture, shape it into a ball, and flatten it slightly in your palm.
4. Add Cheese: Place a tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese in the center of the patty, then fold the meat around it to enclose the cheese completely. Make sure there are no gaps.
5. Wrap with Bacon: Take 2-3 slices of bacon and wrap them around the beef ball, securing it well. You can use toothpicks if necessary to hold the bacon in place.
6. Coat with BBQ Sauce: Brush your wrapped bombs with BBQ sauce for added flavor and moisture.
7. Bake or Grill: Cook the bacon bombs for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), ensuring the bacon is crispy.
8. Rest Before Serving: Remove them from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the cheese to settle.

These steps will guide you to create mouthwatering BBQ bacon bombs that everyone will rave about.
