Must-Try BBQ Bacon & Banana Rolls
"These sound a bit odd but are SO yummy. My family have been serving these for years at BBQs and I can't believe this hasn't already been suggested as a recipe! Anyway, give it a try and, hopefully, you'll love it as much as we do! I've said it serves 4 (2 a piece), but in my family this would only serve 2!"

- 2
- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas (you may need less depending on their size)
- 8 slices smoked streaky bacon (it needs to be streaky)
directions
- Skin the bananas, cut the ends off and slice into approximately 4 pieces (you ideally need to cut them to the approximate width of your bacon, so depending on the size of your bananas you could get more or less slices).
- Wrap each slice of banana in one piece of streaky bacon. Hold in place with a cocktail stick.
- BBQ until bacon is cooked through (we like ours well cooked so the bacon is crispy).
- Serve!

Absolutely fantastic. These were served at cocktail parties in Haiti a lot, the flavor combination is wonderful. salty with sweet and both fit like a hand in glove. -
Hubby looked at me sideways when I bought these out for a tapas stype lunch for guests. All quizzical looks disappeared as fast once they had tried these though. What a HIT ! The flavours work unexpectedly well together and compliment each other in a bizaare but very tasty way. I initially kept my plate back so that I could take a photo first and when I rejoined our guests DH was disappointed to find that it was my portion and not seconds LOL. Please see my rating system: 5 EXCELLENT stars for a recipe where you have no idea what to expect but are pleasantly surprised to find a taste combination that works so well. Everyone voted for a return showing on out tapas table soonest... Thanks !

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Aloha! I'm 29 years old and from the UK. My other half calls me his 1950's housewife because I just love to bake, preserve and cook in general! After studying catering at college I decided commercial cookery wasn't for me but I still like nothing more than discovering new dishes, throwing dinner parties and so on!
I work on the recruitment side of a quantity surveying consultancy about 25 miles north of London. I love my job. It's hard work but fast paced, challenging and my work day just flies by.
With regards to how I rate recipes, I try and keep it fair and to the system. I do my best to give no lower than 3 stars but will do on occasion if I made something as directed and it still ended up in the bin. I've never given 1 star but on occasion I'll leave no stars if I suspect something went horribly wrong. Most recipes get rated at 3/4 stars because 5 stars is reserved for spectacular recipes that become frequent users and a family favourite. Everyone has their own rating systems and that doesn't offend me. Rate my recipes as you see fit - I know what I like and what I don't and I'm here to fill my recipe book (filling anyone elses is merely an advantage), not to win a popularity competition or become chef of the year.
