ABT BBQ Peppers

Made these for the first time in about 6 years. Love them!!!.
1 # Cream Cheese
1 # leftover pulled pork
20 ea jalapeños, the straighter the better
20 ea slices of bacon

Mix the cream cheese and pork—you can add a little sauce to if you want, or vinegar. Obviously this is a little easier if slightly warm.

Slice the peppers in ½ lengthwise and scrape out the inside. Put the mixture into one side of each pepper, place the other half of the pepper on top, wrap with bacon to seal. You can use toothpicks or bamboo skewers if necessary to secure the bacon. The pictures I sent should give you an idea of what your shooting for.

Sprinkle each with some BBQ dry rub if desired.

Smoke for about 1.5 hours at 300 or until the bacon is crisp.

I have not had supper yet… dude you just ruined it. Man that looks freeking deeeelscrumptious!

Just looking at my water soaked garden. Pepper plants will now be joining the tomatoes in pots on the deck.

Thanks for sharing.

i have done the same thing but took only a halve and put a little cheese, cream or chedder, a little cocktail weiny on top, and wrap in bacon.

I’ve done the same thing but with shrimp instead of pulled pork. This is a good idea though for pork leftovers, which I rarely have. Looks really good.

Hold the tomato, fool!

all I can say is Yummmmm. I have made these 3 times now. Twice with pulled pork and once with shrimp. One of my favorite. Thanks for the post

Looking good, think I will give it a go, Faith you gotta get the cast iron grill for your Egg, excellent heat retention for searing.

I love my BGE. They are not cheap, but there are not many parts that wear out on them.

Instead of regular cream cheese, try Pineapple Cream Cheese…trust me on this one- the sweet with the spicy is fantastic.

I always mix Jimmy Dean Mild sausage (browned), pineapple cream cheese, shredded cheese, then stuff them…however, I do halves instead of putting the whole jalapeno back together. Then roll bacon around them and grill!

However, I do want to try adding some shrimp instead of sausage next time around!
