1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
2 cups breadcrumbs
Oil for frying
Instructions
1. Prepare Onion: Cut the onion into thick rings, separating the rings from each other.
2. Make Filling: In a bowl, combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cheese, and crumbled bacon. Mix until well combined.
3. Stuff Rings: Take a larger onion ring and fill it with the beef mixture, then place a smaller onion ring on top to seal it.
4. Coat Rings: Dredge each stuffed onion ring in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and then coat with breadcrumbs.
5. Heat Oil: In a deep skillet, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
6. Fry Bombs: Carefully add the onion ring bombs to the hot oil, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes each side.
7. Drain & Serve: Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Choose a large, sweet onion for the best flavor and texture.
Feel free to experiment with different cheese varieties, such as pepper jack or gouda, for a twist on the classic cheddar.
Maintain the oil temperature between 350-375°F for optimal crispiness and even cooking.
