Bacon explosion

Bacon Explosion (often also Bacon Bomb ) is the name of a roll roast recipe made of sausage meat wrapped in bacon, diced ham and barbecue sauce that has become known under this name on the Internet .

History of origin

Jason Day and Aaron Chronister posted the recipe on their blog BBQ-Addicts in December 2008 . It went viral on the internet, quickly gaining more than 500,000 hits and 16,000 links. The inventors from Kansas City , Missouri , known as the Burnt Finger BBQ Team from several barbecue competitions, came up with the idea after being challenged on Twitter to create the "ultimate bacon recipe". They called their creation Bacon Explosion: The BBQ Sausage Recipe of all Recipes (“Breakfast bacon explosion: The best of all bratwurst recipes”). The recipe is similar to previously published recipes, so that Day and Chronister cannot claim to have invented the recipe, but they did have the term “Bacon Explosion” registered as a trademark .

public perception

Its popularity led to international reports, including in the American, British, German and Dutch media. The inventors published a cookbook called BBQ Makes Everything Better that won the 2010 Gourmand World Cookbook Awards for Best Barbecue Book in the World . The Bacon Explosion also won the 2013 Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival .

preparation

For the preparation you cut the breakfast bacon into thick slices, fold them together like a grid and season them with typical grill spices ( table salt , pepper , paprika , chili powder ). For the filling, the sausage casing is removed from coarse raw sausages (originally Salsiccia ) and the sausage meat is cut into a homogeneous mass of meat . This mass is distributed on the grid and sprinkled with the ham cubes. Then spread a barbecue sauce over the meat and season again if necessary. Finally, you roll up the meat and shape it in aluminum foil like an American football . The roast is cooked in the oven or a barbecue smoker . The typical way of serving is in pre-cut slices, together with the sauce and other side dishes.
