Celebrate the Super Bowl with a Bacon Explosion!
With the big game around the corner, you are doubtlessly preparing an appetizer, queso or chili recipe that will blow the socks off of your friends and leave everyone in a food coma by the second half.
Before you break out grandma’s secret recipe book or go to one of your old tried-and-true concoctions, you may want to take a look at this barbecued bacon recipe, Bacon Explosion!, courtesy of bbqaddicts.com.
Here’s what you’ll need…2 pounds thick cut bacon
2 pounds Italian sausage
1 jar of your favorite barbeque sauce
1 jar of your favorite barbeque rub
2 defibrillator paddles (ed. note)
911 on speed dial (ed. note)To kick off the construction of this pork medley you’ll need to create a 5x5 bacon weave. If the strips you’re using aren’t as wide as the ones pictured, then you may need to use a few extra slices to fill out the pattern. Just make sure your weave is tight and that you end up with a nice square shape to work with.
The next step is to add some barbeque seasoning on top of your bacon weave. Being the barbeque addict that I am, I whipped up a batch of Burnt Finger BBQ’s competition pork rub for this special occasion. Seeing as not everyone has the time, or the expertise, to create a tasty rub of their own, I would recommend trying Bad Byron’s Butt Rub, Rendezvous Famous Seasoning, or Steven Raichlen’s All-Purpose Rub.

Done did it for the SB party at Jastroch’s.
Warning: if you are doing it in the oven… put it on a rack so it doesn’t make the bottom soggy from the juices.
Otherwise…unbelievable.
