Indulge in Bacon-Wrapped Beef Bombs with a Cheesy Jalapeño Core. A flavor explosion perfect for comfort food lovers!
Ingredients
- • Ground beef: 1.5 pounds
- • Bacon strips: 12
- • Jalapeños: 3, deseeded and diced
- • Cream cheese: 1/2 cup
- • Cheddar cheese, shredded: 1 cup
- • Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Onion powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Smoked paprika: 1 teaspoon
- • Salt: 1 teaspoon
- • Black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
- • Worcestershire sauce: 2 tablespoons
- • Olive oil: 1 tablespoon
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 2 In a large bowl, combine ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- 3 In a separate bowl, mix together the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and diced jalapeños. This will be the cheesy core of your beef bombs.
- 4 Divide the beef mixture into 12 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a patty and place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center. Fold the beef around the cheese to form a ball, ensuring the cheese is completely sealed inside.
- 5 Wrap each beef bomb with a strip of bacon, securing with a toothpick if necessary. This will add a crispy, smoky layer to your beef bombs.
- 6 Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef bombs on all sides until the bacon is crispy, about 2 minutes per side.
- 7 Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and the cheese is melty.
- 8 Let the beef bombs rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the cheese to settle.
Serving Suggestions
- • Serve these decadent beef bombs alongside a fresh green salad to balance the richness, or go all out with creamy mashed potatoes for the ultimate comfort meal. A cold beer or a glass of red wine pairs perfectly with the savory flavors, enhancing the indulgent experience. For added flair, garnish with chopped chives or parsley for a pop of color.
Storage Tips
To store leftovers, let the beef bombs cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. For reheating, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until warmed through. Avoid microwaving to keep the bacon crispy.
