Smoked Spicy Bacon-Wrapped Onion Rings

Being in the middle of various sporting seasons, weekend rituals involve game time watch parties and gatherings. Which also means a large variety of delicious appetizers and foods. The most popular ones?

Hot and spicy. And I hate to pass up some of my favorite dishes, but sometimes heartburn can get the best of me. Not just heartburn here or there, but I get bouts of frequent heartburn, every few months it seems.

I always stay prepared though. I keep Nexium® 24HR Clear Minis stocked. I don’t just get the 14-capsule pack; the 42 capsule box comes with three 14-day courses of treatment. Nexium® 24HR capsules are the #1 choice of Doctors for their own frequent heartburn.ii Just one Nexium® 24HR capsule each dayi blocks acid at the source, turning your body’s acid pumps from on to off.

When those bouts of frequent heartburn occur, I will do the 14-day treatment with just a pill a day. So when we do have these delicious foods, I have nothing to worry about and can just enjoy the taste.

    I made these today and they were delicious! Since a lot of the sauce came off of the onion as I was wrapping it with bacon I brushed a little on the bacon-wrapped onion rings prior to smoking.
