Bacon-Wrapped Onion Rings
ForensicBBQ
A delicious, smoked treat that goes great as a side at your favorite BBQ outing. Plenty meaty for a main course, but meant for the serious BBQ'er.
Prep Time 20 minutes mins
Cook Time 2 hours hrs
- 3 Large Onions
- 3 Tbsp Favorite BBQ Rub
- 2 Tbsp Barbeque Sauce
- 1 Lb Bacon (Thin)
Preheat smoker for about 275 degrees
Slice Onions about an inch thick. Keep two rings together to give the ring some structure. Depending on your preference - You can use the whole onion or the largest part. (I post for you, so I chose three onions and picked the large, most evenly sized ones)
Wrap the double ring with a piece of bacon. Stretch the bacon and ensure the whole onion is covered
Place completed Onions on a jerky rack, Bradley rack or something similar for easy transport.
Sprinkle a bit of your favorite sweet and savory rub on both sides of the ring.
Place in smoker for about an hour and half - flipping at the halfway point.
Remove from smoker, let it cool for about 5 minutes and apply a light drizzle of your favorite BBQ sauce
Enjoy!
Optional: Burned and Crispy
