Ingredients
- 4 pork breasts
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
- Season the pork breasts with salt and pepper. Place the pork breasts in the bowl with the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove the marinated pork breasts from the refrigerator. Wrap each pork breast with 2 slices of bacon, overlapping slightly to secure them in place.
- Place the bacon-wrapped pork breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). For extra crispy bacon, broil on high for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.
- Remove the pork breasts from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve with your favorite sides.
This pork-wrapped BBQ pork breast recipe is a delightful blend of flavors and textures, perfect for any occasion. The smoky, savory taste of the bacon complements the sweet and tangy BBQ sauce, making each bite a taste sensation. Enjoy!
