Bbq Bacon Onion Wrapped Meatballs Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) (or 350°F (180°C) on a convection oven).
• In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, ground sausage, bread crumbs, onion, garlic, and egg together with your hands until thoroughly combined.
• Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized balls. Use your thumb to create a dent in the balls, add a bit of mozzarella and seal.
• Cut the bacon rashers in half and roll around the meatballs.
• Place the meatballs on a foil-covered tray and bake for 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and brush with BBQ sauce, then bake for 5 minutes more. Repeat brushing and baking two more times for an extra-thick layer of BBQ sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, bread crumbs, garlic, diced onion, parsley, egg, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and honey until evenly combined. Set aside in the refrigerator.
• Cut the 4 onions vertically on cutting board. Remove the stem and root from each piece. The layers of each onion will act as "shells" to wrap around each meatball.
• Remove the meatball mixture from the refrigerator and pinch off golf ball-sized pieces of meat. Press a small cube of cheddar cheese into the middle of each meat portion, then form into a meatball shape with your hands.
• Wrap each meatball in 2 onion "shells", then with 2 strips of bacon, and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Brush the meatballs with barbecue sauce, covering them completely.
• Bake for 45 minutes, brushing again with BBQ sauce halfway through, until deep brown with a nice crust on the outside.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl, mix the ground beef, onion, parsley, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper until combined. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Line two empty ice trays with bacon, overlapping each piece to cover the tray completely.
• Press the bacon down into each round with two fingers.
• Spoon some of the meatball mixture into each round and press down to smooth. Make sure to pack the meat down to touch the bottom of the ice tray.
• Fold the edges of the bacon on top of the ice tray.
• Flip the ice tray over onto a baking sheet and carefully lift the ice cube tray off of the meatballs.
• Bake for 20 minutes, or until bacon is just brown.
• Brush the meatballs with barbecue sauce and bake for 10 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and meatballs are cooked through.
• Transfer the meatball sheet to a cutting board and cut the bacon to create single meatballs.
• Place a toothpick in each meatball.
• Enjoy!
