I'm Cajun so I like mine a little hotter so I save some of the seeds and membrane and add it to the cream cheese mixture. Also, sometimes I add some leftover meat with the cream cheese mixture. Love your recipes and videos. Thanks for sharing!

I use a spoon that I sharpened to take out the seeds and membrane. I cut all the peppers first then hollow them out. Also use it for bell peppers and other veggies. The video was great.

Jeff I use a melon baller (melon ball scooper) to scoop out the jalapeno seeds and membrane. Much easier than using a knife and no risk of cutting your fingers.

You know Jeff, one of the many reasons I enjoy your videos so much is because you are you and you're not trying to be somebody else. And that is a big secret to your success. I read that comment critique below, and I couldn't disagree more. I'm not here for an Aaron Franklin masterclass. Keep up the great work buddy. BTW - made these with some fatty bacon - and that was a mistake I'll not soon make again. Also mental note, if I plan to eat dinner too, I need to stop around 2 or 3 of these. Knocked back a half dozen and lost interest in cooking up the rest of our dinner.

Great video and great technique. We've been making these ever since we first read your recipe. Per your recommendations on the original recipe, we add a precooked breakfast sausage link, cut in half lengthwise, and we also use a whole strip of thin sliced bacon. These freeze really well. You've made me hungry. Might have to go pull some out of the freezer right now :)
@tulsajeff4 жыл бұрын
Sure wish I had some in the freezer.. starving right now! I thought about adding the sausage to these but decided to keep them simple.. that is a great way to do it though. You can also add a small shrimp or even mix some meat into the cream cheese such as pulled pork, brisket, leftover smoked turkey, etc.

I fill the entire jalopeno (I don't cut the entirely in half. it is more work...) and use a spoon to get rid of the seeds. That does mean more bacon per ABT. and I finish with a rub on top of the bacon. You're method is easier (with the jalopenos cut in half) and will do that next time!

Either way works just fine.. I usually leave them on 225 and bring them in when the peppers are very soft and the bacon has a nice texture. If you'd rather cut down on the time, then it's perfectly fine to crank up the heat a little.

My videos are not intended to be quick "tasty" videos and I know this won't appeal to some however, I am purposely taking my time with these to teach and show as much as I can in a 10-15 minute time frame and it is appealing to a very large audience of those wanting to learn something specific rather than just jump from video to video.
