Grilled Bacon Firebomb Recipes

GRILLED BACON FIREBOMB

Steps:

• Set up your barbeque for the lonely island technique (no coals in middle of grill for indirect heat).
• Place a drip tray inside the barbeque on the indirect side. Cover with the lid, adjust the vents for a nice low heat and allow to heat up like an outdoor oven - you want a temperature of around 200c/450f.
• Place 8 slices of bacon side-by-side on a piece of greaseproof paper, then layer over, fold and cross weave more rashers to create a lattice making sure there are no gaps, then sprinkle over the mix of Rad.
• Spread the pork meat into a rectangular shape over the bacon weave, roughly 1 inch thick then spread with BBQ sauce.
• Roughly chop the onion, pepper and mushrooms and finely slice the garlic and chilies (keep the seeds in if you like the heat), then spread evenly over the pork, leaving a ¾ inch gap around the edge. Starting with one of the shortest sides, and using the paper to help you, slowly roll it up.
• Place over indirect heat on the barbeque, cover with the lid and cook for 1-2 hours, or until cooked through and gnarly, remembering to replenish with hot coals every 45 minutes or so. Add fruitwoods to coals for an extra layer of flavor.
• Cook for about an hour then brush over another good drizzle of BBQ sauce. Once done, remove to a board to rest for 10 minutes, then carve into slices (roughly 1 inch thick) and serve this beautiful house of pork.

SMOKED BACON BOMB

Steps:

• Stack and weave 1 1/2 pounds bacon slices into a 12-inch square lattice. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon barbeque seasoning.
• Place the remaining bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crispy, about 10 minutes. Chop the cooled bacon slices into chunks.
• Place sausage in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag most of the way; flatten and shape the sausage into a large square. Cut away the plastic bag and discard; place the sausage square on the bacon lattice.
• Sprinkle bacon pieces over the sausage square. Sprinkle Cheddar Jack cheese, jalapenos, green onions, and garlic on top. Drizzle with 1/2 the barbeque sauce and sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons barbeque seasoning on top.
• Roll the sausage square into a log. Wrap the bacon lattice over the sausage log and roll tightly.
• Place the roll, seam side-down, onto wire racks. Place the racks into the smoker. Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions. Smoke until no longer pink in the center, about 2 hours, basting the roll with the remaining barbeque sauce during the last 20 to 30 minutes of cooking. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
• Remove bacon bomb from the smoker; let rest for 30 minutes before slicing.

BACON ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat.
• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a cooling rack on top. Place bacon on rack, making sure no pieces are overlapping.
• Place baking sheet on the grill grate, close the lid, and cook for 12 minutes or until desired doneness. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease.
