Mmmmmm...poppers!

Hey ya'll once again from the big dry ditch in Las Vegas. I was going to grill today but ahhh...a little too hot once again. Maybe tomorrow will be more appropos. My gal had bought some very nice ground beef to make some sliders but she changed her mind as usual and opted instead for spinach/cheese ravioli with garlic cream sauce instead. Of course I was enlisted to do the cooking. So what to do with the ground beef? I have peppers. I have cheese. Duh..como se dice en espanol....poppers!!
Ground beef, japs, 4 cheese Mexi mix, shallots, Lawry's and fresh ground pepper. Here tis. Notice the melon ball tool I use to deseed. Works perfect.

The mix.

Stuffed.

Have a great holiday ya'll....and cheers!!! Texas Bluesman

Chingonalicious Jay. You coulda' crisped up that bacon just a bit more but its all cool and the gang.

Everyone's a critic.

I will take a dozen please. However you wanna serve them is perfect for me. BOOOOOM.

When I make them myself, I will attempt your level of perfection. Nuf said.

I happen to like my bacon just like that.  Cooked, but not crunky. They were perfect for me.  As for the ripe jalapenos, I have no idea.  I think they come from Mexico.  I saw some ones that were starting to ripen and grabbed them all!  I left them sit out for a few days until they were all ripe.

Those look amazing Jay!

Bringin' back the old skool AJ popper thingaderra with style.  Well done compadre'  I would love to pound down a dozen of them with the Texas sauce.  That is my new name for ranch.  I happen to love ranch too.  Here in Yankeeland we have something called pub fries which are twice fried fresh cut fries that are seasoned with a salt, black pepper, and garlic blend, then  topped with shredded cheddar cheese and bacon, and baked for a couple minutes to melt the cheese before topping with green onions and served with ranch.  Heaven on a plate.  I might have to make a batch and post somewhere.

Thought i'd try some poppers in the Pit, not bad at all, also these were the hottest jalapenos i have ever eaten, almost killed my brother. He had to down a litre of milk almost hahahah
 

 

 
 

 

[muskymojo]

Nice!
 
What did you stuff em with, and did the goods stay in the peppers for the most part?
 
Seems like a lot would leak out cooked like that (depending on the stuffing).

 

[Booma]

Stuffed with cream cheese, no leakage at all

 

[texas blues]

Geez Louise Boom!
 
Those be some killer looking ABT style poppers.
 
Lovin' the color on the bacon.
 
Don't tell anyone I said it but I'd chew the hell out of those little bacon bastards!
