Jalepeno Poppers

Larry has been making these poppers every weekend for almost 2 months now and I always passed because jalepenos hurt me and Im not into spicy stuff. Especially when you dont know how the peppers will be.
Well I suggested an alternative so everyone will be happy.
At first I mentioned using sweet long banana peppers but no one has them so Larry came across small sweet peppers to use.

So now we do jalepenos and sweet pepper poppers

Here is how you make them

~What you need~
Peppers (sweet or hot, not bell)
cream cheese
bacon
toothpicks

Before starting take out cream cheese so it can soften. Usually 3 packages for the amount that we make which is around 25
Core out the centers and rinse out
with a butter knife stuff the pepper with cream cheese. It doesnt have to be fully packed because some will come out while cooking



its good to have 2 packages of bacon on hand but one will probably be enough.
Cut the bacon in half and then wrap the halves around the peppers using tooth picks to hold it in place.



Even though Larry has a gas grill he prefers doing these with charcol.
You need to keep and eye on them because the bacon can cause too much flame.
Grill until the bacon is cooked and cheese is soft.





Flip until all sides have cooked




Easy as that

YUM!!


Let me know if you try these and how you like them. It takes awhile to get it right but so worth trying.
