These Bacon Wrapped Meatballs are wrapped in bacon and brushed with a bbq sauce and grape jelly mixture. A tasty appetizer!

What you'll need:

  • onion powder
  • garlic powder
  • egg
  • panko breadcrumbs
  • salt
  • pepper
  • ground beef
  • bacon
  • bbq sauce
  • grape jelly
Directions:
  • Place the onion powder, garlic powder, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper into a medium-sized bowl and stir together until combined.
  • Add the ground beef and mix well.
  • Roll meatball mix into 12 even-sized balls, a little over 2 tablespoons each, set aside.
  • Slice the bacon in half down the middle, then slice it again in half length-wise. Using a toothpick, secure two slices of the cut bacon around each meatball in a criss-cross pattern. Repeat with all of the meatballs. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the bacon is crispy.
  • While the meatballs are baking, mix together the bbq sauce and grape jelly in a small bowl. When the bacon is crispy, brush the meatballs with the sauce. Place them back in the oven for 5-10 minutes until glazed and caramelized.
  • Serve with a garnish of parsley, optional.
