food Mmmmmm...poppers!

I don't like poppers.....or at least they way most people make them. Wrap raw chiles with raw bacon and by the time the bacon is cooked the chiles are mush.
Solution- Par-bake!

very quick play-by-play-
microwave minced onions until soft, add garlic if desired.
Mix cooked onions with cream cheese, black pepper, additional chile pepper powder if desired
Par-bake (half-cook) bacon strips
cut chiles, clean out seeds yadayadayada (this is the poppers thread! You should know how to do this...)
Stuff with cream cheese, bacon wrap and bake just enough to finish cooking the bacon.

The cheese mix will be soft and bubbly, the chile will still be firm and crispy, and the bacon will be done.




No soft slimy peppers.....
 
EDIT-
 
triple post-
 
 
What the....?!?!???

Somehow ... I've not made poppers yet ...
 
I have 3-4 different types of single j. peno's this year, too, so it's inevitable ...
you have a diffrent utensil for ever type of food and you have never made poppers?     get your shit together!!!!! 
 
Several weeks ago I bought a stainless steel pepper rack that has two sizes of holes, and it works great!
We're stuffing them with a 50/50 mix of cream cheese and sharp cheddar, some cooked bacon (chopped small), and a little garlic powder (to taste), then cook them on the grill for 10-15 minutes.
All of a sudden 4 jalapeno plants just aren't enough!

I looked at the exact same tray on Amazon. I'd love to see you allow the jals to get red now that you have this contraption for the grill. My guess is near impossible!

Ha! That's the truth.
I've had to buy some orange habs from the grocery store to help supplement (mine got started late and the fruit isn't big enough yet).
 
Dang Sic those look pudo Chingon!
 
I can almost taste the crunch from the bread crumbs and my mouth is watering at that peach mango rum sauce.
 
Got a recipe for that?
 
Your fans need to know!
 
How can this thread lie dormant for three months?  This is awful.  Well, here is a meager attempt at resuscitation.
 
\Ripe jalapenos, stuffed with gouda cheese,wrapped in bacon, and sprinkled with Jamaican Jerk seasoning.  Extra bacon is for DTS.
