🍽️ Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Onion Bombs

Ingredients:

2 large sweet onions
1 lb ground beef (or ground pork/turkey)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1 egg
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup BBQ sauce (plus extra for glazing)
8-10 slices of bacon
Toothpicks or kitchen twine

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

Prep the Onions:
Peel the onions and slice them in half top-to-bottom. Carefully separate the layers to create “onion shells” for stuffing.
Make the Filling:
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add BBQ sauce and mix well.
Stuff the Onion Bombs:
Take two similar-sized onion halves and stuff them with the meat mixture. Press them together to form a “bomb.”
Wrap with Bacon:
Wrap each bomb with 2–3 slices of bacon. Use toothpicks to secure everything in place.
Cook Time!
- Oven: Preheat to 400°F (200°C). Bake on a wire rack over a baking sheet for 40–45 minutes or until bacon is crispy and internal temp hits 160°F.
- Grill: Use indirect heat and cook for 40–50 minutes, brushing with BBQ sauce in the final 10 minutes.
Final Glaze:
Brush on extra BBQ sauce and broil for 2–3 minutes if desired for a caramelized finish. 🍯🔥

😍 Tips for Maximum Flavor:

Use smoked bacon for an extra punch.
Swap in mozzarella or pepper jack for a cheese twist.
Add jalapeños inside for a spicy kick! 🌶️
