I’ve been wanting to make this dish for ages but my reluctance to have a heart attack meant that I had to wait for a suitable occasion when there were people to share it with. We’re invited to some friends’ barbecue tomorrow so I’m jumping at the chance.
The recipe followed is here http://blog.bbqaddicts.com/recipes/bacon-explosion/ but as we don’t have access to a lot of barbecue rubs in this country we made some magic dust which we found the recipe to here http://bbq.about.com/od/rubrecipes/r/bl50617d.htm.
We used Stubbs barbecue sauce and we don’t have a steamer (it’s also chucking it down with rain) so we cooked it in the oven. Please remember the temperature on the recipe is Fahrenheit so adjust to about 130C or gas mark 1/2. We wanted to cook it before tomorrow so it can just be finished off on the grill when we get there and (hopefully) nobody will be poisoned. We are cooking ours for 3 hours and have kept it wrapped in the tinfoil. Crispy outer coating will be from the grill.
