Ingredients:

🥒 5 whole pickles
🧀 5 mozzarella cheese sticks
🥓 10 strips of bacon
🍢 Toothpicks
🧂 Steak seasoning (to taste)
🫒 1 tablespoon olive oil (for air fryer basket)
For the sauce:
🥄 1 cup mayonnaise
🧅 ½ teaspoon onion powder
🧄 ½ teaspoon garlic powder
🌭 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
🍖 4 tablespoons barbecue sauce


Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 5
Equipment: Air Fryer, Small Mixing Bowl


Instructions:

  1. Begin by patting the pickles dry with paper towels. Slice a thin piece off one side of each pickle to create a flat surface. This will prevent them from rolling.
  2. Using a small knife, carefully hollow out the center of each pickle, removing the seeds to make room for the cheese.
  3. Take a mozzarella cheese stick and fit it snugly into the hollowed center of each pickle. If necessary, trim the cheese to fit perfectly.
  4. Replace the small piece of pickle that was cut off, like a cap, and secure everything tightly with toothpicks.
  5. Wrap each stuffed pickle with two strips of bacon, making sure to overlap slightly. The ends of the bacon should be secured with the toothpicks to prevent unwrapping during cooking.
  6. Lightly coat the stuffed and wrapped pickles with steak seasoning for added flavor.
  7. Brush the air fryer basket lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the prepared pickles in the basket, not touching each other.
  8. Air fry at 390°F for about 10 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese is melted.
    While the pickles are cooking, prepare the dipping sauce:
  9. In a small mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, onion powder, garlic powder, yellow mustard, and barbecue sauce. Stir until well blended.
  10. Serve the crispy bacon-wrapped pickles with the sauce in small cups, perfect for dipping. Remember to remove the toothpicks before serving.
    Enjoy this delightful treat during the Super Bowl, or any gathering that calls for a unique and savory appetizer.

Cooking Tips:

  • If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake the pickles in a preheated oven at 400°F on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes, or until bacon is crispy.
  • The toothpicks must be soaked in water for at least 15 minutes prior to use to prevent them from burning during cooking.
