Bacon Explosion

[FMCoug]

So I bought the stuff I need to make a bacon explosion today. Going to do it on New Year's Day. One of those things you want to be able to say you've done once.

If you have no idea what I'm talking aboug, google "Bacon Explosion".

Basically it's a "loaf" of bacon and sausage, smoked.

[Drunk Tank]

They are awesome, and artery clogging! I need to make another when the parts for my smoker arrive.

My wife said it sounds like it will create another kind of explosion.

A romance explosion?

[The_Tick]

Be forewarned...they are salty as hell.

DT couldn't give his away.

As in "Ouch, my heart just exploded?"

Mine was salty because I used the wrong type of rub. when I make another, I wont make that mistake again. Just remember bacon is salty on its own, and so don't use a salt based rub like Pappy's for your seasoning and you will be fine.

When I read that I thought I had clicked on a certain thread in The Foyer.

You're thinking of the Sausage Explosion thread.

[Coach McGuirk]

I decided to try one of these today.

I started with the Colosomo Mild Italian Sausage, Kirkland organic 85% 15% beef, and Fletchers Dry Cured bacon,




I took the bacon and made the bacon weave using 6 pieces each direction,



I then sprinkled on some home made rub which uses butt rub as a base,



Fried up what was left of the bacon,



I then mixed 1 pound of sausage and 1 pound of beef and made a giant patty,



I flipped the patty on to the bacon,



Then pulled apart the cooked bacon and topped it with BBQ sauce,




I then carefully rolled the sausage on top of itself,



Then reverse rolled the bacon up with it creating a perfect roll,




It is about to go in the smoker. I will post more when it is done.

I'm into portion control. Just a taste of everything.

[FN Phat]

I love the fatty! I was thinking about doing one of these. It looks like you beat me to it. I have seen a few with some onions and jalapeños and cheese in the middle as well. I appreciate your weaving ability.

[TripletDaddy]

no doubt. Coach has Soul Glow-level weave skills!

Pellets? Time and temp? This looks like something that is crazy and fun to make. I assume it is an appetizer of some sort? not an actual main course?
