Meatballs, wrapped with bacon, then glazed with BBQ sauce... You know you are going to try these just by the name! Nobody would blame you, these beauties taste even more amazing than they look.
Take your pick from any one of these favorite Kosmos Q BBQ Sauces:
While you let the meatballs out to thaw, slice Bacon strips in half. Wrap half a bacon strip around each meatball (if you get/make larger meatballs, you might want to use a whole strip of bacon). Secure the bacon with a toothpick.
Now pick the wrapped meatball up by the toothpick, and season it with the BBQ rub of your preference - we used Dirty Bird Hot for that extra kick. Make sure to cover the meatball evenly.
Get the grill going at 275ºF (135ºC). Place the MOINK Balls over indirect heat, and check back on them in about 25 minutes. Cook them until the bacon starts to crisp up (about 30-45 minutes total).
When bacon is crisp to your taste, put some of the BBQ sauce you love (we used Peach Habanero) in a bowl, and grab each MOINK ball by the toothpick to dunk them in the sauce. Then return them to the grill, and let the sauce set - or get tacky - for approximately 10 more minutes.
Your MOINK balls are ready! Serve them to your family or guests, and watch their faces as they hungrily ask for more.

These Deviled Eggs with Honey Killer Bee Crispy Bacon take a classic appetizer and give it a serious BBQ twist. Creamy, rich egg yolk filling gets mixed with mayonnaise, yellow mustard, finely chopped dill pickles, red onion, and Kosmos Q Dirty Bird Rub for a thick, flavor-packed bite.
This Creamed Corn takes sweet corn and turns it into a rich, creamy side dish packed with buttery flavor and a savory kick from Kosmos Q Double Pepper Cow Cover. Fresh or frozen corn simmers in heavy cream, cream cheese, and butter before getting finished with Parmesan for an extra layer of cheesy goodness.
This Fire Roasted Salsa Verde takes fresh tomatillos, jalapeños, poblanos, onion, and garlic and turns them into a smoky, flavor-packed salsa that's perfect for just about anything. Everything gets tossed with olive oil and Kosmos Q Garlic Jalapeño Rub, then roasted over high heat until blistered, tender, and lightly charred.
Everyone wishes that they could have award-winning competition BBQ at their backyard barbecue parties. With Kosmo's BBQ, that's exactly what you'll have, every time.
