Vidalia Onion & Bacon Wrapped Burger Bombs

Cook Time45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground chuck
  • 3/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 8 oz frozen colby jack sliced into equal cubes
  • 1 pound bacon
  • the 2 outer shells from 4 Vidalia Onions
  • bbq sauce to taste
  • toothpicks

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine the ground chuck, breadcrumbs, eggs, garlic powder, salt, & pepper in a large bowl. Divide into 8 equal sized balls & stuff with a cube of frozen colby jack. Form into thick disc shapes, being careful to cover the cheese with meat. Wrap with 2 halves of the outer shell from the Vidalia & wrap in 2 pieces of bacon - the bacon should be wrapped with 1 piece wrapped vertically & the other wrapped around the burger horizontally. Refer to the pictures in the post for help. Secure with toothpicks & brush the bacon with bbq sauce.
  • Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. If the bacon is not crispy enough for your liking, cook the burger on each side in a hot skillet for about 1 minute each to crispen it up. Serve on a bun & enjoy!
