Bacon Wrapped Tatar Explosion

I decided to make some bacon wrapped Tatar explosion! I saw something similar to these on a cooking show on TV and decided to make my own version of them. These are actually quite easy to make but a little time consuming in prepping but worth the effort. The Bacon Wrapped Tatar Explosion are excellent for game night and has appetizers. These are best served with a Monterrey Jack dipping sauce. Well let’s start grilling shall we!

Ingredients:

• ½ Bag Tater Tots (thawed to room temperature)
• 1 16 Ounce Package Bacon
• 2/3 Cup Brown Sugar
• 2 TBSP Bone Suckin’ Sauce Seasoning or ground red peppers
• ¼ TSP onion powder
• ½ TSP Fresh Ground Black Pepper
• Fresh Jalapenos cut in pieces

Directions:

Preheat your Joe to 325 degrees for indirect grilling;

Cut each bacon strip into 3 equal pieces;

Cut Jalapenos in cubes;

Wrap 1 piece of cut bacon around a tot, piece of jalapeno and skewer with the toothpick;

 Mix the brown sugar, onion powder, Bone Suckin’ Sauce Seasoning, and black pepper in a bowl;

Then roll them in the brown sugar and spices mixture;

My big helper!

Grill them on the BBQ indirect for 30-45 minutes at 325 Degrees and flip them after 30 minutes to get both sides of the bacon crisp. (I recommend to check on them every 10 minutes and to move them around) Serve them warm with a side of Monterey Jack cheese dipping sauce.

Cheese Sauce

Ingredients: 

• 2 TBSP Butter
• 1 1/2 TBSP All-purpose flour
• 1 TSP Salt
• 1/2 TBSP Bone Suckin’ Sauce Seasoning
• 1/4 TSP Ground Black Pepper
• 2 Cups Whole Milk
• 1 Cup Grated Monterrey Jack Cheese

For the cheese sauce, in a medium saucepan over medium heat melt the butter. Add the salt, pepper, Bone Suckin’ Sauce Seasoning & Rub, and flour, whisking over heat for one minute. Add the milk slowly while whisking constantly to remove any lumps. Continue to cook until bubbly, add cheese until melted. Serve warm.
