Cheese Stuffed Bacon Meatballs (Aaron Mccargo, Jr.) image

Yummy meatballs from Foodnetwork's "Big Daddy's House" - These are really really yummy. The recipe calls for applewood smoked bacon but my grocery store didn't have that so I substituted with regular bacon.

Categories     Cheese

Time 45m

Yield 8-12 meatballs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 -10 slices apple-smoked bacon
1 lb ground chuck
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package onion soup mix
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon coarse black pepper
1 tablespoon beef stock
8 -10 bite-size fresh mozzarella cheese balls

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Arrange the bacon slices on a sheet pan. Put in the oven and bake until crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan to a cutting board and chop. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the beef, Worcestershire, onion soup mix, bread crumbs, black pepper, stock and the chopped bacon.
  • Form portions of the meat around the mozzarella to make smooth balls. Arrange the meatballs on a sheet pan with a rack and bake until thoroughly browned, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Serve with Pasta and Marinara Sauce.

These meatballs were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my meatballs came out a bit dry. Any suggestions on how to make them more moist?

These meatballs were very tasty, but they fell apart a bit when I took them out of the pan. Not sure what I did wrong. Overall, still a yummy dish!
