Instructions.

Preparation.

1. Prepare Ingredients.Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Cut the cheddar cheese into small cubes. Set aside.

   Make sure the cheese cubes are small enough to fit inside the meatballs.

Assembling the Bombs.

1. Wrap the Cheese.Take a portion of ground beef and flatten it in your hand. Place a cube of cheddar cheese in the center and wrap the meat around it, forming a meatball.

   Ensure the cheese is completely covered by the meat to prevent leakage during grilling.

2. Wrap with Bacon.Wrap a slice of bacon around each meatball, securing it with a toothpick.

   Use thick-cut bacon for easier wrapping and a juicier result.

Grilling the Bombs.

1. Grill the Bombs.Place the bacon-wrapped meatballs on the preheated grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the meat is cooked through.

   Keep an eye on them to prevent burning the bacon.

2. Glaze with BBQ Sauce.Brush the BBQ sauce onto the bacon bombs during the last few minutes of grilling, allowing it to caramelize slightly.

   Choose your favorite BBQ sauce for added flavor.

Serve and Enjoy.

   These make a great appetizer or main dish served with a side salad or grilled veggies.

Note.

• For a smokier flavor, consider using hickory-smoked bacon.
• Make sure the cheddar cheese cubes are well-chilled before wrapping them in the meat mixture to prevent them from melting too quickly.
• To prevent the bacon from unraveling during cooking, secure each bacon-wrapped meatball with toothpicks.
• Brush the BBQ sauce generously over the bacon bombs during the last few minutes of grilling for a caramelized finish.
• These cheddar-stuffed BBQ bacon bombs are best served hot off the grill to enjoy the gooey melted cheese center.
