Instructions

1. Prepare the Meatballs
   In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ½ cup BBQ sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, egg, and breadcrumbs. Mix well until fully combined.

2. Stuff the Centers
   Take a scoop of meat mixture (about 2 tablespoons), flatten slightly, and place a cube of cheddar in the center. Roll into a ball, making sure the cheese is sealed inside. Repeat for all.

3. Wrap in Bacon
   Wrap each meatball with a slice of bacon, securing the ends with a toothpick if needed.
