Steps:
- Stack and weave 1 1/2 pounds bacon slices into a 12-inch square lattice. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon barbeque seasoning.
- Place the remaining bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crispy, about 10 minutes. Chop the cooled bacon slices into chunks.
- Place sausage in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag most of the way; flatten and shape the sausage into a large square. Cut away the plastic bag and discard; place the sausage square on the bacon lattice.
- Sprinkle bacon pieces over the sausage square. Sprinkle Cheddar Jack cheese, jalapenos, green onions, and garlic on top. Drizzle with 1/2 the barbeque sauce and sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons barbeque seasoning on top.
- Roll the sausage square into a log. Wrap the bacon lattice over the sausage log and roll tightly.
- Place the roll, seam side-down, onto wire racks. Place the racks into the smoker. Add wood chips according to manufacturer's directions. Smoke until no longer pink in the center, about 2 hours, basting the roll with the remaining barbeque sauce during the last 20 to 30 minutes of cooking. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
- Remove bacon bomb from the smoker; let rest for 30 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Using 10 slices of bacon, weave a square lattice on top of a pie: first, place 5 bacon slices side by side on a large sheet of aluminum foil, parallel to one another, sides touching. Place another strip of bacon on one end, perpendicular to the other strips. Fold first, third and fifth bacon strips back over this new strip, then place another strip next to it, parallel to it. Unfold first, third and fifth strips; fold back second and fourth strips. Repeat with remaining bacon until all 10 strips are tightly woven. Preheat oven to 225°F or light a fire in an outdoor smoker. Place remaining bacon in a frying pan and cook until crisp. As it cooks, sprinkle bacon weave with 1 tablespoon barbecue rub. Evenly spread sausage on top of bacon lattice, pressing to outer edges. Crumble fried bacon into bite-size pieces. Sprinkle on top of sausage. Drizzle with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce and sprinkle with another tablespoon barbecue rub. Very carefully separate front edge of sausage layer from bacon weave and begin rolling sausage away from you. Bacon weave should stay where it was, flat. Press sausage roll to remove any air pockets and pinch together seams and ends. Roll sausage toward you, this time with bacon weave, until it is completely wrapped. Turn it so seam faces down. Roll should be about 2 to 3 inches thick. Sprinkle with remaining barbecue rub. Place roll on a baking sheet in oven or in smoker. Cook until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees on a meat thermometer, about 1 hour for each inch of thickness. When done, glaze roll with more sauce. To serve, slice into 1/4 to 1/2-inch rounds.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality bacon: Look for thick-cut bacon with good marbling for the best flavor and texture.
- Weave the bacon tightly: This will help to keep the filling from falling out and ensure that the bacon cooks evenly.
- Use a variety of fillings: Get creative and experiment with different fillings, such as cheese, sausage, peppers, onions, and jalapenos.
- Cook the bacon bomb slowly and evenly: This will help to prevent the bacon from becoming tough and overcooked.
- Let the bacon bomb rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the bacon bomb easier to slice.
Conclusion:
The bacon bomb is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its crispy bacon exterior and flavorful filling, the bacon bomb is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a unique and impressive dish to serve, give the bacon bomb a try.
