Instructions:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or set your oven to broil.
- If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth or gently brushing off the dirt. Avoid rinsing them directly under water to preserve their texture and absorb less moisture.
- Take one bacon strip and wrap it snugly around each mushroom. If the bacon strip is too long, you can cut it to fit.
- Secure the bacon-wrapped mushroom onto a skewer. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms and bacon until all are wrapped and skewered.
- Using a brush or a spoon, generously coat the bacon-wrapped mushrooms with BBQ sauce. Ensure all sides are evenly covered for a rich, smoky flavor.
- Grill Method: Place the kebabs on the preheated grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and the mushrooms are tender.
- Broil Method: Arrange the kebabs on a baking tray lined with foil. Place the tray under the broiler and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning halfway through, until the bacon crisps up and the mushrooms cook through.
- If desired, brush a final layer of BBQ sauce onto the kebabs during the last few minutes of cooking for an extra burst of flavor.
- Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill or oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
- Serve the smoky BBQ bacon-wrapped mushroom kebabs hot, and enjoy them as a delicious appetizer or side dish.
Tips:
- Choose fresh mushrooms: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh mushrooms. Cremini or button mushrooms work well for this recipe.
- Precook the bacon: To ensure the bacon is fully cooked and crispy, consider precooking it in the microwave or oven for a few minutes before wrapping it around the mushrooms.
- Soak wooden skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before assembling the kebabs to prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Brush with BBQ sauce: For an extra layer of flavor, brush the kebabs with BBQ sauce not only before cooking but also halfway through the grilling process.
- Monitor the grill: Keep an eye on the kebabs while they cook to avoid burning the bacon. Turn them frequently to ensure even cooking.
