Ingredients for Bacon Cheeseburger Loaded Mozzarella Stick Bombs
Here’s everything you need to whip up these flavor bombs:
- 8 mozzarella sticks (cut in half to make 16 pieces)
- 1/2 lb cooked ground beef, seasoned like your favorite burger
- 4 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or American cheese
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough or pizza dough
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Optional: sesame seeds or parsley for topping
- Dipping sauce: ranch, marinara, or your go-to burger sauce
Tools You’ll Need
- Baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- Small bowl for melted butter
- Pastry brush (optional but handy)
- Skillet for browning beef
- Knife to cut mozzarella sticks and dough
Possible Ingredient Swaps & Additions
I promised you versatile, and here’s proof!
- Use spicy pepper jack cheese instead of mozzarella for a kick.
- Sub turkey or veggie crumbles for a lighter twist.
- Add diced pickles inside for the ultimate cheeseburger flavor.
- Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning on top instead of sesame seeds.
- Try crescent roll dough if you can’t find biscuit dough.
How to Make Bacon Cheeseburger Loaded Mozzarella Stick Bombs
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper – easy cleanup!
- Prepare the dough. Open the biscuit or pizza dough and flatten each piece into a circle with your hands.
- Fill ’em up! Add a spoonful of seasoned beef, a pinch of bacon, a sprinkle of shredded cheese, and a half mozzarella stick to the center of each dough circle.
- Seal the bombs. Wrap the dough around the filling and pinch well to seal. Place seam-side down on your lined baking sheet.
- Brush & top. Brush each bomb with melted butter, then sprinkle garlic powder over the top. Add sesame seeds or parsley if you’d like.
- Bake to perfection. Pop them in the oven for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
- Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce. Try ranch, marinara, or burger sauce – or all three!

Tips for Making Them Perfect
- Make sure your beef is well-seasoned and fully cooked before filling.
- Pinch the dough closed tightly so no cheesy goodness leaks out.
- Don’t overfill! A little filling goes a long way.
- If you love an extra golden top, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end (watch closely!).
How to Store Bacon Cheeseburger Mozzarella Stick Bombs
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes to get that crispy outside back. You can also freeze them before baking – just thaw and bake as usual!
