Makes 15-20 rings

Things needed:

1 large white onion

Soak toothpicks in water for about 20-30 minutes. This will help them to not burn up on the grill. Then cut the onion into rings. Wrap bacon around the onion rings. Use a toothpick to hold the bacon in place, and season the rings with Meat Church Deez Nuts. Finally, put them on your cooker at 275 degrees until the bacon is done.

Madison Pork (bacon wrapped pork tenderloin)

Feeds 5-6 people

Things needed:

1 pork tenderloin

1 pound thin cut bacon

MMB secret pork rub

Olive oil (optional)

Saran wrap

Start by laying out a large piece of saran wrap on a flat surface. Use the bacon to make a bacon weave. (If you don’t know how to make a bacon weave, we would love to write a blog about it, but until then check it out on youtube.) As a prerub, add a little bit of olive oil to the tenderloin. Next, lay the tenderloin on the bacon weave, centered in the middle.  Coat the piece in MMB pork rub. Use the saran wrap to help secure the bacon weave by lifting the wrap rather than the bacon itself. Once rolled nice and tight, place on the cooker at 275 degrees until the internal temp reaches 165 and the bacon is crunchy and browned
