BBQ Bacon-Wrapped Mozzarella Sticks

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2️⃣ Wrap the Mozzarella Sticks:
Take each mozzarella stick and wrap one slice of bacon around it, starting from the bottom and spiraling up to the top. Be sure to cover the stick as much as possible. Secure the end of the bacon with a toothpick to keep it in place.

3️⃣ Arrange on Baking Sheet:
Place the bacon-wrapped mozzarella sticks on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the toothpick ends are facing down to keep the bacon in place during cooking.

4️⃣ Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese begins to ooze out. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.

5️⃣ Add BBQ Sauce:
Remove the mozzarella sticks from the oven and brush them with your favorite BBQ sauce while still hot. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the sauce to set.

6️⃣ Serve:
Allow the mozzarella sticks to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them with extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
