3/4 cup grated Parmesan

  • Lay the crackers face up on a large rack over a baking sheet (or broiler pan). Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the grated Parmesan onto each cracker. Cut the package of bacon in half (or cut pieces individually) and carefully, so the cheese doesn't fall off, wrap each cheese covered cracker with one half piece of bacon, completely covering the cracker. It should fit snugly around the cracker, but not be pulled too taut. Place the bacon-wrapped crackers onto the rack. Place the baking sheet in the oven for about 2 hours. Serve immediately or at room temperature!

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound ground beef sirloin
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 slices applewood-smoked bacon
1 ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (such as Tillamook®)
1 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon maple syrup
6 hamburger buns
6 leaves lettuce
2 tomatoes, sliced

Steps:

  • Mix ground beef, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl until evenly blended. Form beef mixture into 6 4-inch wide patties. Transfer patties to a large plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until patties are slightly firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
  • Cook beef patties on preheated grill until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over patties about a minute before they are done.
  • Mix peanut butter and maple syrup in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat peanut butter mixture in the microwave until slightly runny, about 25 seconds. Stir again.
  • Spread peanut butter mixture over hamburger buns and top with beef patties, lettuce, tomatoes, and bacon.

Yield Makes 36 canapés

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup peanut butter
6 scallions, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon mayonnaise plus additional for brushing the bread slices
1 teaspoon brown sugar or granulated sugar
9 slices of homemade-type white bread, crusts removed
6 slices of lean bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces and cooked until almost crisp

Steps:

  • In a small bowl stir together the peanut butter, the scallions, the lemon juice, the soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise, and the brown sugar. Spread the bread slices lightly with the additional mayonnaise, spread the peanut butter mixture on the slices, and cut the slices into quarters. Arrange the canapés on a baking sheet, put a piece of bacon on top of each canapé, and bake the canapés in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp.

Tips:

  • For a crispier bacon, cook it in a single layer in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until desired crispness.
  • To make the peanut butter mixture smoother, use a food processor or blender.
  • For a sweeter appetizer, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to the peanut butter mixture.
  • For a spicier appetizer, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the peanut butter mixture.
  • If you don't have toothpicks, you can use small skewers or even pretzel sticks to hold the bacon-wrapped appetizers together.
