Bacon Explosion

[JMacSr]

Thought this little gem would catch everyone's attention as we get into BBQ season in the States. Called the Bacon Explosion, it is a work of art.

1. Make a "quilt" of bacon and season with BBQ rub.

2. Spread out about a pound of fresh sausage, cheese (optional), crumbled cooked bacon, and your favorite BBQ sauce.

3. Roll it up and and wrap in foil, put it into the cooler to allow it to set.

4. Cook over indirect fire for about 2 - 2.5 hours

Enjoy

Damn... that is quite possibly the most amazing use of bacon I have ever seen.

[thechenman]

I love bacon...I'm seriously drooling right now.

[maalouly]

That looks amazing, can only imagine the heart problems I would have if I was to have it every week.

[fugwumpy]

Wow, I have to give that one a try, thanks!

Good thing I'm in training for hardening of the arteries

[Ellery]

Wow that looks good.

[gerem]

Thanks for sharing.

OK... in your expert opinion, does the cheese really work with this? or is it just spoiling the over the top use of pig meats?

I've made it with and without, however you prefer. It can also be sliced after cooled and served on hamburger bun with cheese at that time.

Are you a cardiologist trying to drum up business? Either way I'm gonna try making one; looks wonderful.

OUT

STANDING

seriously, providing at least one recipe like this should be mandatory for all forum users. Top of the class JMac

Good stuff.

I throw Jimmy Dean sausage rolls (ground sausage packaged in a tube) in my smoker several times a year. Instant hit. Drool. Slice. Serve. Drool some more.

Truly a work of art mate and something one can customise to their liking should they not like the cheese option.

I for one will use this recipe.

Seriously bud, thanks for sharing.

Brilliant. I would love to know the calloric value of this thing. Should be called "Bacon Suicide Bomber"

Any more recipes you wanna share? Love the creativity.

Guess what someone had for Father's Day this year? It was my first time, and I think it turned out quite well. Taste was fantastic, yet extremely difficult to explain. I chose to slice it into 1/2" pieces and put those on a hamburger bun. Perfect. I loved it, as did the rest of my party. This recipe will go down in history as a classic.

Paired with a PSdC#2 and a nap, I couldn't have asked for anything more.

So, here's a useful bit of information... this recipe comes out at about 6200 calories in total and just under 500 grams of fat. That includes about 2 pounds of bacon, 12oz of sausage and 4 slices of cheese. Not too bad for all this porky deliciousness.

Totally worth it!
