Description

Pulled Pork Mac ‘n’ Cheese Bombs are a mouthwatering combination of creamy mac ‘n’ cheese, smoky pulled pork, crispy bacon, and a spicy kick from ghost pepper hot sauce. These bite-sized snacks are wrapped in golden, flaky biscuit dough and baked to perfection. Perfect for parties, family meals, or satisfying your cravings for bold, comforting flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups prepared mac ‘n’ cheese
  • 1 cup pulled pork, mixed with BBQ sauce
  • 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • ½ teaspoon ghost pepper hot sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 egg, beaten (for brushing)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix the mac ‘n’ cheese, pulled pork, bacon, and ghost pepper hot sauce. Stir until well combined.
  • Assemble the Bombs: Flatten each biscuit dough piece and spoon a generous amount of the filling into the center. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges tightly to seal.
  • Bake: Place the assembled bombs on a greased baking sheet. Brush with the beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Serve: Let the bombs cool slightly before serving. Enjoy while hot for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of ghost pepper hot sauce based on your preferred spice level.
  • You can substitute the pulled pork with shredded chicken or ground beef for variety.
  • Refrigerate any leftover bombs in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
