Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs!
Bacon Cheeseburger bombs are not only delicious, they’re simple to put together and my kids just gobble them up… who am I kidding, so do I!!
A warm crispy sesame crust loaded up with gooey cheese, seasoned ground beef, onions, bacon and all the fixin’s packed into one neat tidy little bundle! The best part is that these are actually very quick to make!
These are actually a really great simple dinner, lunch or even a great snack. If you have any leftovers, these reheat perfectly. We make them ahead of time and add them to lunches. Not only do they kids love them, they take about 30 seconds to reheat and are so much better than store bought pizza pockets!
You can find biscuits in the refrigerator section of most supermarkets making these extra easy and quick. If you don’t want to use pre-made biscuits, you can use homemade biscuits and get great results! Mushrooms or grated carrots are the perfect way to add some extra veggies to this recipe!
If you have any leftover beef mixture, it’s delicious in a roll or as a wrap for a quick lunch… or add it to a grilled cheese for a truly amazing sandwich!
Ingredients
- 1 (16.3 ounce each) can refrigerated biscuits
- 1 pound lean ground beef

No Carb version????
I’m sorry, I don’t have a no carb version of this recipe.
There are some really good ideas for the SuperBowl here. I think that I may have to make the Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs for my son-in-law. They sound perfect for him. Thank you for sharing at Idea Box Link Up Party.
Tried these tonight. Pretty good need to make some adjustments to our taste. I would love to try these as mushroom Swiss burger bombs.
Mushroom swiss would be SO good!!
We actually used ground venison. Very good
I am making these for dinner tonight. Can’t wait to try them.
I think I may throw in a dill pickle slice or a bit of relish. Anyone added that?
It would be delicious!!
This looks so good! Just got ingredients and about to try it out. I am going to substitute in butterkase cheese for cheddar since I think it adds to the rich smiley flavor. Will post results!
I’ve made these a few times and they are always a hit! I also made them with taco meat also a hit!
Taco meat would be delicious too!
Finally made these yesterday after printing the recipe months ago. Found them to be fine, but not great. If I make them again, I’ll add more bacon and eliminate the mustard. Maybe eliminate the egg white, too? It’s probably to help hold everything together, but I think they’d be OK without it, and it’s just another step. Not “difficult” by any means, but a bit labor-intensive for the result. Hot, hearty and filling, and those are all good things. I’ll probably try again.
Look good.
These little morsels proved to be very difficult for me to make! The filling is delicious as is all of the other ingredients however, the biscuits proved to be a huge challenge to work with… I ended up with holes in the dough and easily had enough filling left over to make another whole batch if I wanted to… I am a father with, what I feel are, above-average cooking skills and the preparation for me was very disheartening… And of course the “how to” video makes it “look” so easy that it made the whole experience even worse for me… I was so excited about making these when I saw the video and BEFORE I dove into the recipe… I only hope my next attempt at one of these yummy appearing meals goes better than this one did… Disappointed…
I’ve made these several times and the only time I’ve ever had issues with the dough was when I used a store brand of dough. I find that it there is moisture the dough can seem to break apart and not seal correctly. Using Pillsbury brand has eliminated this issue for me. Hopefully that helps!
Can you use a sheet of the crescent roll dough? That might be easier than the biscuit dough.
Sure you can! You can just cut it into squares and wrap. :)
I will be trying these cheese burgers they look delicious
Enjoy!
Going to modify this by using my smoked pulled pork instead of ground beef.
Yummy idea!!
Looks nice
Trying this tonight!
I would like more recipes.
Looks fun
ive tried leaving a comment before but it never posted. What kind of biscuits did you use? were they regular or flaky, flavored or original, grands or straight pillsbury? ive had a problem before with recipes because i used the wrong biscuits.
just ignore my question above i finally found my original post haha. i will be making these tuesday? any suggestion on sides to go with it besides french fries or onion rings
You could do a salad, pasta salad or potato salad! Dill Pickle Pasta Salad would be good with these.
When you store these do they get soggy? I am trying to find easy make ahead dishes for camping and these look really good. I’m just not sure how well they would cook up over a camp fire
I haven’t tried cooking/heating these on a campfire but they do not get soggy when storing if they’ve been baked first.
I am trying these tonight… Would Colby jack cheese taste ok?? I can’t wait to try them my husband has been begging me too make.. Also thinking of adding some jalapeño into it to make a little spicy
Jalapeno would be AMAZING in these!! I think any type of cheese would be great.
I made these last night bc they look so simple and tasty..and they are :) ! I read that they reheated nice and I was skeptical but heated up 2 in the microwave for lunch today and the biscuit wasn’t soggy or anything. (they reheat like a dream!) my kids loved them and I will be making these again sometime soon! for larger crowds definitely double or triple the recipe. The only thing I ran into that I will do differently is not cook the bacon with the ground beef and onion ..bacon takes way too long to cook and with all the grease from the meats took even longer dot some reason .in fact I will l3va rout bacon next time as it wasn’t even necessary for all the goodness these cheeseburger bombs deliver..thanks for the recipe. Love it!
I’m so glad you loved it and I agree, they reheat perfectly! Thank you for your suggestion on the bacon!
