4 Italian Sausage Links, casing removed.
6 slices, Sugar Free Smoked Bacon
1 cup Keto Cheddar Cheese, (Shred your own cheese)

Mix the sausage mixture until well incorporated without over-mixing, resulting in tough sausage balls.

Start to scoop the sausage mixture using a 2-ounce portion scoop or tablespoon with work as well. Portioning all the mix onto the baking sheet. Roll each ball in using the palms of your hands to shape evenly.
