This is a smoked meat log wrapped in bacon. Some call them a Fatty or Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf. I used ground venison burger in my example.

Bacon wrapped venison bites with a cream cheese/pepperoncini mixture.

So let me just start by saying this is not your average chili recipe. There is a bit of time and sweat equity that goes into this. The recipe, as written, is sweet, spicy, and smoky. This is my go-to recipe for chili cookoffs or potlucks at work. It has a unique flavor that is a bit different than your typical chili because its blends sweet, spicy, and smoky. This is not your typical 30 minute chili.
