Optional garnish: chopped chives or parsley
Instructions:
Step 1 – Make the Filling:
In a medium bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese until well blended.
Set aside.
Step 2 – Prepare the Sausage Layer:
In another bowl, season the ground sausage with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Divide into 12 equal portions.
Flatten each portion in your hand into a small disc.
Step 3 – Assemble the Bombs:
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture into the center of each sausage disc. Carefully fold the sausage around the cheese to seal it, forming a ball.
Wrap each sausage-cheese ball tightly with a strip of bacon. Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 4 – Glaze and Bake:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Brush each bacon-wrapped bomb with a bit of barbecue sauce.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, then brush again with more sauce and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and caramelized.
Step 5 – Serve and Garnish:
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle with chopped chives or parsley if desired. Serve warm with toothpicks for easy grabbing.

These sausage bombs are perfect for potlucks, tailgates, or holiday buffets. Serve with extra barbecue sauce, ranch dressing, or a creamy mustard dip on the side.
