This incredibly simple appetizer is a crowd favorite treat everywhere we go. It's an easy bake and take, and the best part is that it only requires three ingredients. I typically have all of these ingredients on hand, so it is a quick fix if an impromptu party pops up or I get a last minute invitation and want to take something along. Nearly everyone LOVES bacon, and doesn't bacon make everything taste better? In this recipe, you simply wrap bacon around a water chestnut, bake it, and then drizzle it with barbecue sauce. The water chestnut is basically flavorless, but it provides the perfect crunch to this savory treat. Every time we share this, people rave about how delicious this it is ... and the serving dish is always empty before the event is over. Enjoy, and let us know what your friends say!
RECIPE: Bacon Wrapped Water Chestnuts
10 minutes prep | 45 minutes total
Ingredients:
1 lb. Bacon
2 cans whole water chestnuts
KC Masterpiece BBQ Sauce
Cut strips of bacon into thirds.
Wrap each piece of bacon around a water chestnut and use a toothpick to hold bacon in place.
Organize into a 9x13 glass dish.
Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 30 minutes or until bacon looks cooked and starting to crisp. Sometimes I will drain the grease off to help the bacon crisp up faster.
Drizzle BBQ sauce over each serving.
Return to oven and bake another 5-10 minutes until the sauce is hot.
