SMOKED BACON-WRAPPED TEXAS EGGS (makes 6-8)
Ingredients:
6-8 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1/2 lb breakfast sausage
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

16-24 slices bacon
BBQ sauce
Green onions or chives
Directions:
1. Preheat your smoker to 275°F.
2. Mix the beef, sausage, panko, Worcestershire and BBQ seasoning.
3. Flatten 4-6 oz of the mix into a patty, set an egg in the middle and work the meat all the way around it. Seal it good.
4. Wrap each one with 2-3 slices of bacon, one lengthwise and two around.
5. Give the outside a light dusting of BBQ seasoning.
6. Cook right on the grates at 275°F until the bacon renders and the meat hits 165°F.

8. Let the sauce set, pull them and rest a few minutes.
9. Top with green onions, slice in half and serve.
