Ingredients:

  • 12-20 pieces of bacon (as rectangular as possible)
  • 1 lb. hot ground sausage
  • 2 tbsp A1 Sauce (or any low-carb barbecue sauce will do)
  • 4 oz. cheese (organic grass-fed preferred)

Preparation Instructions:

  1. Lay the bacon out flat on a piece of aluminum foil. Lay 8 or 10 side-by-side, and see if the width of the entire spread is about equal to the length of a single piece. If so, you’re right on track.  Now weave bacon the opposite direction into the bacon that’s on the foil.
  2. Flatten out the sausage on top of the bacon weave.  Try to get the depth uniform.
  3. Add some fun other protein sources: cheese, fried eggs, more bacon…really, you’re only limited by your imagination here. Gotta say, eggs are an awesome addition.
  4. Gently roll the sausage over on top of the interior ingredients, being careful not to make a hole in the sausage.
  5. Now roll the bacon from the other direction over on top of the sausage, creating a wondrous, bacon-y shell.
  6. Add your sauce. Spread it all over the top and sides. DON’T add a high-carb BBQ sauce. Look for as few carbohydrates as possible.
  7. Bake it at 385˚F for 45 minutes, and you’re golden.

Slice it, eat it, but try to not cry. Seriously. It’s THAT good.”

Makes approximately six 4 oz. servings.
