Ingredients
– 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)
– 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
– 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 12 slices thick-cut bacon
Instructions
1-First: heat your oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid any mess. In a bowl, mix the ground beef with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until it’s well combined. Roll the mixture into balls, flatten them, add a piece of shredded sharp cheddar cheese in the center, and wrap the beef around it to seal.
2-Next: wrap each ball with 1-2 slices of thick-cut bacon and use toothpicks to hold it in place if needed. Brush them generously with BBQ sauce for that extra tang. Pop them in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the beef is cooked through and the bacon gets nice and crispy.
3-Once done, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This step-by-step approach makes the process fun and ensures your Cheddar Bbq Bacon Bombs come out perfect, whether it’s for a quick dinner or a party appetizer.
