Stuffed Bacon Rashers Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the jack cheese and chopped bacon in a bowl. Put the beef in another bowl and season with salt and pepper; use a rubber spatula to mix it in. Flatten 1/4 of the meat mixture in the palm of your hand. Squeeze together about a tablespoon of the cheese and bacon mixture to make a little nugget; put it in the center of the ground beef. Bring up the sides of the patty over the filling, making sure the cheese is completely covered by the meat. Flatten slightly for a nice patty shape. Set them side by side on a platter in the refrigerator while preparing the grill.
• Place a large grill pan on 2 burners over medium-high heat or preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal barbecue and get it very hot. Brush the grates with oil to keep the burgers from sticking. Grill the burgers for 8 minutes per side for medium. (The USDA recommends cooking ground beef until it is no longer pink and the internal temperature is 160 degrees F.) Remove the burgers to a clean side plate while you toast the buns.
• Rub the grill rack with more oil and place the buns cut-side down, toast for 1 minute. Serve the burgers with your favorite condiment and any garnish you like, such as lettuce, sliced tomato, onion, and/or avocado.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until cooked through but still slightly soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels, retaining bacon drippings in the skillet.
• Melt butter in a separate skillet over medium-high heat; saute onion and celery until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir bacon and poultry seasoning into onion mixture.
• Mix onion-bacon mixture and bread pieces together in a large bowl; fold in eggs. Spoon bread mixture into muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are crispy, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, dice and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Remove mushroom stems. Set aside caps. Chop the stems.
• In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Slowly cook and stir the chopped stems and onion until the onion is soft. Remove from heat.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the mushroom stem mixture, bacon and 1/2 cup Cheddar. Mix well and scoop the mixture into the mushroom caps.
• Bake in the preheated oven 15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
• Remove the mushrooms from the oven, and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Mix the cheeses and mustard together. Cut a slit into the side of each chicken breast, then stuff with the mustard mixture. Wrap each stuffed chicken breast with 2 bacon rashers - not too tightly, but enough to hold the chicken together. Season, place on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 mins.

Steps:

• Butter 12 holes in a muffin tin. Make up the stuffing mix with 520ml boiling water. Add the butter and stir well. Set aside to absorb the water and cool.
• Meanwhile, criss-cross two bacon rashers, with a bay leaf if using, in each space in the muffin tin, allowing the excess to overhang the tin (see step-by-step guide). Spoon the cool stuffing mixture into the tin and fold the overhanging bacon over the top to make a parcel. Secure in place with cocktail sticks. Chill until ready to bake.
• Bake at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 30 mins, until piping hot and the bacon is cooked. (Remove cocktail sticks before serving.)

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high and grill the bacon for 5 mins until crisp, turning halfway through. Set aside and keep warm. Tip the flour, baking powder, sugar and a large pinch of salt into a large bowl, then gradually whisk in the eggs and milk until you have a smooth, thick batter.
• Heat a splash of the oil and small knob of the butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat until sizzling. Spoon in 1 tbsp of the batter and spread out to a rough 10cm circle with the back of the spoon. Top with a few slices of the brie, a pinch of the grated cheddar, and 1½ tbsp more of the pancake batter - the batter should cover all the cheese. Don't worry if the batter starts to spread - you can shape it by pushing the cheese back toward the centre using a spatula. Cook for 2-3 mins until bubbles start to form on the surface, then carefully flip and cook for 2 mins more. Keep warm while repeating the process with the rest of the oil, butter, batter and cheese. Serve topped with some salted butter and the crispy bacon.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Cut the bacon rashers in half. Wrap a piece of bacon around each of the chipolatas.
• Place on a baking tray and cook for 30-35 mins until golden.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine ground beef, soup mix and water. Shape into 12 thin patties. Place a cheese slice on six patties. Cover each with another patty. Pinch edges to seal. Wrap a strip of bacon around each; fasten with a wooden toothpick. , Grill, covered, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160° and juices run clear. Discard toothpicks. Serve on buns.
