Onion Bomb Recipes

STUFFED ONION BOMBS RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, milk, ½ cup barbecue sauce, onion, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix together with your hands until thoroughly combined. Cut top and bottom off onion, cut in half and peel off skin. Then separate the onion into "layers". Use the larger outside layers. Stuff your ground beef mixture between two onion layers (essentially making an onion seal around a large meatball). Wrap each "bomb" with 3 slices bacon and secure with toothpicks. Bake in a dish with sides (to catch grease) at 425°F for approximately 40 minutes or until internal temperature 165°F. Glaze the "bombs" with more barbecue sauce and bake an additional 5 minutes. Enjoy!

BBQ BACON ONION-WRAPPED MEATBALLS RECIPE BY TASTY

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!
