Steps:
- Mix meat, egg, crumbs, cheese and salt.
- Cut top and bottom off onion, cut in half and peel off skin. Then separate the onion into layers. Use the larger outside layers.
- Take a small handful of your meatloaf mix and put it inside one onion layer.
- Gently press another layer on top of the mixture. You are making an onion seal around your large meatball.
- Continue with the rest. I made 4 but amounts can vary based on onion sizes.
- Wrap each "bomb" with 3 slices bacon and secure with toothpicks.
- Bake in a dish with sides (to catch grease) at 425 for approx 40 minutes or until internal temp 165.
- Add BBQ sauce all over and bake an additional 5 minutes!
- Top with chives or scallions.
