Anatomy of a Bacon Bomb
Posted on February 8, 2010 by Miller
For Super Bowl Sunday I wanted to make something a little over the top and after reading CTK1′s post about Twitter and food posts, I thought I’d share with you how I made The Bacon Bomb. Read on…
Ingredients
I used 2lb of ground pork, 1 lb of bacon, 1 onion, 1 bell pepper, some garlic, and Dinosaur BBQ sauce.
Chopped Veggies
Make sure all the veggies are chopped of fine, then combine into a bowl
Marinate
Form the 2lb of Ground Pork into a square brick about 1 in. thick. coat with your favorite meat rub. Then dump all your veggies on top and coat with a generous amount of BBQ sauce.
Roll That Pork
Now Roll the pork into the bomb!
Bacon Weave
Probably the hardest part of the recipe is weaving the bacon. Size it up on a cutting board and use a basket weave on the bacon. This is what holds the bomb together.
Glaze Again
Once the bomb is wrapped, preheat the oven to 300 degrees, and glaze with more BBQ Sauce
Post Oven
Cook for between 2 and 3 hrs turning up the heat towards the end to about 350 degrees to char the bacon. Enjoy!

Honestly when I first saw this I got a fierce pain up and down my left arm and nearly keeled over in cardiac arrest. This is a ridiculous meal and should be called: Suicide Pork… and wow, yummy!
What a lovely death it is… Carry On Ryan.
Ryan,
If I served that at the festavis party, I would need to call kunkle and have them wait in the driveway!
But, I do like how you weaved of the beacon.

Thanks for the comments Cathy and Cindy. It turned out to be pretty damn good, but really heavy. I was excited about eating a good chunk of it but could only get a few pieces in. I would certainly make it again though.
I’ll try to post more food articles as sometimes we get into some pretty good recipes and are worth sharing.
