SMOKED JALAPEÑO POPPERS

Ingredients

  • 8 jalapeños
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 225g cream cheese
  • 2 slices sourdough bread
  • 8 slices of bacon(optional)
  • toothpicks

Instructions

-Preheat your grill to 190°C.

-Chop the tops off of your Jalapeño and scrape the seeds out with a knife.

-In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, minced garlic, and shredded cheddar. Blend these ingredients together until it is evenly mixed.

-Take your Jalapeño and stuff them with the cream cheese mixture about 80% of the way full.

-Cut the sourdough slices into squares and stuff 1 bread square into each Jalapeño to keep the contents inside.

-Wrap each pepper tightly with a bacon slice and try your best not to overlap. This will insure the bacon cooks evenly.

-Slide 2 toothpicks perpendicularly into each pepper to hold it all together.

-Cook the peppers at 190°C for 60-75 minutes, depending on how crispy you want the bacon. I find the longer they go, the better. Enjoy!
