Ok I admit it; I am more than a little envious of the creators of the now famous Bacon Explosion recipe that is currently causing an Internet media frenzy.

BBQ buddies, Aaron Chronister and Jason Day, came up with this recipe as a result of a challenge they received on their BBQ Addict website.

The Bacon Explosion calls for just four ingredients… bacon, Italian sausage, BBQ sauce and BBQ rub. (They suggest that you use your favorite brands.)

In a nutshell, two pounds of sausage is patted onto bacon that has been ‘woven’ into a basket weave pattern and generously sprinkled with rub.

Cooked bacon goes on top of the sausage and then everything is rolled up in jelly roll fashion. The whole thing is then encased in another “bacon weave’, sprinkled with more rub and coated with BBQ sauce.

This yummy creation is then smoked in the smoker of your choice, for roughly 2.5 hours. Aaron and Jason suggest you serve slices of their Bacon Explosion between two halves of a large biscuit. In this case… a little goes a long way.

Rumor has it that these two inventive guys, from Kansas City, have already been offered a cookbook deal.

All the frenzy just goes to so you what can happen when you combine a unique recipe with the power of the Internet!
