Ingredients (Serves 4)

1 package biscuit dough (8-10 biscuits)
1 lb ground beef
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
6 slices cooked turkey bacon, crumbled
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup butter, melted
Salt and pepper to taste

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. Cook the Ground Beef

In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drain any excess fat and set aside to cool slightly.

3. Prepare the Biscuit Dough

Roll out each biscuit dough piece slightly to create more space for the filling.

4. Assemble the Garlic Bombs

Place a spoonful of cooked ground beef in the center of each dough round.
Add shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled turkey bacon on top.
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal.

5. Bake

Place the sealed cheeseburger bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

6. Make the Garlic Butter Topping

While the bombs are baking, melt the butter and stir in the minced garlic.

7. Brush with Garlic Butter

Once out of the oven, brush the warm cheeseburger bombs with the garlic butter for extra flavor.

8. Serve & Enjoy

Let them cool slightly, then serve with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips for Perfect Garlic Bombs

✔ Don’t overfill – Too much filling can make it hard to seal the dough properly.
✔ Use quality cheese – Freshly shredded cheddar melts better than pre-packaged cheese.
✔ Crisp the bacon – For extra texture, cook the turkey bacon until crispy before crumbling.
✔ Try different fillings – Add pickles, onions, or jalapeños for a flavor twist.

Serving Suggestions

These bacon cheeseburger garlic bombs are amazing on their own, but they pair well with:

Dipping sauces: Ketchup, honey mustard, ranch, or BBQ sauce.
A side salad: Add some greens for a balanced meal.
French fries or onion rings: Make it a complete diner-style meal.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: Can I use homemade dough instead of biscuit dough?

Yes! You can use pizza dough or homemade biscuit dough for a more personal touch.

Q2: Can I make these ahead of time?

Absolutely! Prepare and assemble them ahead of time, store in the fridge, and bake when ready.

Q3: How do I store leftovers?

Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for a few minutes to keep them crispy.

Q4: Can I freeze them?

Yes! Freeze them uncooked or after baking. If freezing before baking, thaw before putting them in the oven.
