AP Jalapeño Poppers

Bite-Sized Bliss

This classic appetizer is creamy, crispy, and packed with flavor. Mixed and topped with AP Seasoning, these poppers are always an instant hit.

Gear

Prepare your smoker or cooker to 275 degrees. This is an easy recipe and cook so not much gear is needed. A few bowls and a set of nitrile gloves will be helpful during the preparation.

instructions

Step 1:

After washing, cut the jalapeño stems and slice lengthwise down the center. Using a spoon, scrape the inside of the peppers, including the seeds and membrane, until mostly clean. Leave some of the seeds or membrane if you prefer more heat. Cover and set aside in a bowl.

Step 2:

Mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and AP Seasoning until well combined. We like to mix by hand with gloves to make this step easier, even with the cheese softened. This helps ensure an even mixture of cheese and seasoning.

Step 3:

Spoon the cheese mixture into each jalapeño, being careful not to overflow. Next, wrap each jalapeño with a half piece of bacon ensuring to cover all sides and the length of the pepper. The thinner bacon works best to stretch and doesn't take as long to render during the cook. Season all sides with AP Seasoning.

Step 4:

Smoke or cook at 275 - 300 degrees until the bacon is rendered and the filling has turned a darker golden color and is bubbling. This is typically around the 60 - 90 minute mark.

Step 5:

Remove from cooker and let rest for 5 - 10 minutes before serving warm.

First brisket success

Used the brisket rub on the first brisket I’ve ever attempted. Followed most of the Sure Fire brisket recipe as well, and it turned out great! The rub created great flavor when combined with the cherry smoke. I’ll be using the rub and recipe again in the future.

Built To Last - Chicken Holder

Built to last, heavy duty chicken holder. This is heavy steel that has been welded together and will last forever. Quick rinse off when you’re finished cooking and into the dish washer. Comes out like new. This is a must have for anyone that loves to BBQ!

Family favorite

We used the salted pecan on ribs and slapped on the grill. Let's just say that our picky daughter ate the heck outta those ribs and she normally won't eat ribs! Husband thought it was the best ribs he's made yet. This one is a family favorite!! Amazing

Ah-mazing

Used this for the first time this weekend on some chicken legs. Mixed the chicken in a bowl with the lemon pepper, a little oil and lemon juice. Quick toss and into the grill. Entire family devoured them. Had zero left. Can’t wait to try on some wings this football season. Highly recommended!!!!
