  1. In a skillet, cook beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until browned. Drain excess grease.

  5. Freeze for 20–30 minutes to help hold shape.
Cooking

Notes

Make sure the beef mixture is cool before working with it to help mold the bombs. Double-coating with breadcrumbs gives a crispier texture. Don’t skip freezing the bombs before frying; it helps them keep their shape. Experiment with different cheeses or meats to change up the flavor.
