Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
- 12 slices bacon
- 1 cup (shredded) cheddar cheese
- 0.5 large (diced) bell pepper
- 0.5 medium (diced) onion
- 4 oz (softened) cream cheese
- 2 tbsp BBQ seasoning
- 1 sheet (about 14 inches) plastic wrap
Instructions
Lay out a large sheet of plastic wrap flat on your work surface. Place the bacon slices on the wrap, weaving them together to create a tightly packed lattice (usually 6 slices lengthwise and 6 slices crosswise). Set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine ground breakfast sausage with BBQ seasoning, mixing evenly. Spread the spiced ground sausage evenly over the bacon lattice, leaving about a half-inch border around all sides.
In a separate bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, diced bell pepper, and diced onion until well combined. Spread this cheese mixture onto the center of the sausage layer, lengthwise, leaving enough room to roll.
Using the plastic wrap to assist, carefully roll the sausage and cheese mixture into a log shape. Ensure the bacon weave wraps tightly around the roll and securely seals the edges to prevent the filling from spilling out.
Preheat your smoker or oven to 250°F (120°C).
If using a smoker, place the roll directly on the smoker grates, seam side down. Smoke for about 2 hours or until the internal temperature of the roll reaches 165°F (74°C).
If using an oven, place the roll on an oven-safe rack over a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Bake at 250°F (120°C) for about 2 hours or until the internal temperature is 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, allow the fatty to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into generous pieces. Serve warm and enjoy your savory masterpiece!
