Beef Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs are juicy, cheesy, and packed with smoky bacon, delivering the classic burger flavor in a fun, bite-sized form. Perfect for quick family dinners, game day snacks, or portable party treats, these bombs combine seasoned ground beef wrapped around melty cheddar cheese and wrapped again with crispy bacon, cooked to perfection in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 6 cubes cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Beef Mixture: In a bowl, combine the ground beef with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently to combine without overworking the meat to keep it tender.
  2. Form the Beef Balls: Divide the beef mixture into equal portions roughly the size of a golf ball. Flatten each portion slightly to prepare for wrapping.
  3. Add Cheese and Bacon: Place a cube of cheddar cheese in the center of the flattened beef patty, then wrap it thoroughly so the cheese is completely sealed inside. Next, wrap each beef ball with a slice of bacon, gently pressing it to adhere.
  4. Cook the Bombs: Heat a skillet over medium heat with cooking oil. Cook the bombs, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the beef is fully cooked, about 10-12 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 160°F.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Let the bombs rest for a few minutes after cooking, then serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces or sides.

Notes

  • Use fresh ground beef and quality bacon for best flavor and texture.
  • Handle the meat gently to avoid tough, dense bombs.
  • Fully encase cheese to prevent leaks while cooking.
  • Cook on medium heat to crisp bacon without burning and cook beef evenly.
  • Food-safe internal temperature is 160°F; use a meat thermometer.
