HINT from this old grandma: take the cream cheese out of the foil and let it soften in your big bowl when the cc is COLD and firm - just out of the frig - it won’t stick so bad to the wrapper. This works well when you need softened butter for a recipe, also. 😊 I LOVE both of these recipes and I love your no-nonsense style! Thanks!

[@shaggydog5409]

I've been doing it like that for years. So much easier. Us old grandma's know a thing or two to teach these youngsters. ❤😂😂

[@cdmill03]

I remember watching this guy before he hit 500k and I promise his recipes have always been great no matter what he is cooking!

[@Diva9000x]

Welp, I guess I need to call my sister so she can be fussing again. This recipe is in her Keto universe. She's gonna say again "I ain't gonna be messing around with AB!" then run to the store to get the ingredients 🤣😂 Love it man! Keep up the good work!!

[@michellec169]

wonder if she will use almond flour for the cups...as Keto can't have normal flour. Let me know what she says, please! :)

[@trellean31]

​@@michellec169 almond flour will work but won't absorb as much oil so will have a little oil slick in it. Or use unflavored protein powder as the protein powder will absorb the oil from the cheese similar to bread crumbs.

[@michellec169]

@@trellean31 OH ok I didn't even think about using protein powder. I use that in my bagels that I make.

[@lisaeleanor8559]

Mine too.. making them tomorrow

[@jenniferrosenthal7731]

@Michelle, maybe crushed pork rinds would work

[@cindyledbetter2228]

I've been saving bacon grease for 60 years. Plus I save my cooking oil. Here's my tip; I use cone coffee filters in a used, clean and dry 24 oz cottage cheese container. It's the perfect size and shape to hold the filter without tipping over. My grandma taught me that along with many other valuable lessons for life. Peace be with you all. 🕊️🙏🏿🙏🙏🏽🕊️

[@aantunez5391]

Um, 60 year old bacon grease is probably not a good idea to use anymore...just saying...

[@mrs.b6719]

​@aantunez5391 omg, you're so funny 😁. Her bacon grease isn't 60 years old 🙄 🤣 I'm sure what she meant was that she's been doing the process for 60 years now. We southerners use it as fast as we gather it. Putting it in cornbread, beans, greens and peas, etc. I've been using the same process for close to 40+ years. Every time I cook bacon I pour it up and put it in the fridge. It's usually all used up by the end of a month or so for seasoning 😅 you don't actually get a whole lot from a pound of bacon. Maybe a quarter of a cup if you're lucky. And NO, southerners don't fry bacon every single day either. 😂😊

[@punipuk8507]

Thank you from Alaska, this Eskimo. Greetings

[@deborahsanders9370]

@cindyledbetter2228 ..I would love to hear other useful kitchen tips your grandma taught you. Thank you for sharing about the cone filter. 👍😊

[@XjtBA]

Do you save the baking grease in the refrigerator or at room temperature?

[@RyllenKriel]

My grandparents always saved bacon grease and taught me how useful it is in all sorts of recipes. This one looks fantastic AB, thank you! I will have to try this soon, though I think I might oil up my small muffin tins with the leftover bacon grease for the jalapeno bites, it could give the cheese panko shells even more magic.

[@carrierichardson6619]

Did she tell you how delicious chocolate chip cookies made with bacon grease is?

[@whollyshift7782]

And my mom showed me that you can cover your newspaper or card on board with bacon grease (or any grease or cooking oil) to start a fire. 🤯

[@americafirst6750]

Hello.... I'm curious as to how world I reheat these if I had leftovers?. Thanks.

[@RyllenKriel]

@@americafirst6750 Personally, I would reheat them in the same muffin tray you baked them in with an oven at a low temperature. It might take thirty minutes, but I think a microwave would destroy this recipe.

[@Icewing10]

@@carrierichardson6619 😮😮😮 Whaaaaat?! OMG do you have a receipe?

[@Shari466]

I added minced onion and granulated garlic to the baked jalapeno bites. They were YUMMY. Guests were topping them with my home canned salsa. We've got a winner. Thanks for the idea. 👍

[@Pamela_Gram]

I'm so glad you gave that pro tip about wiping off the excess. I do that to every vessel I cook in. All my glass pans and metal pans look great. Thanks again for another great recipe!

[@sandramyers4848]

Love the cooking but can't stand the music

[@wastrelway3226]

That's a great way to make a cheezy shell for anything! It doesn't have to be a jalapeno bite, you can put just about anything in there. Thank you AB!

[@windermere2330]

Yes! Like a quiche bite!

[@dianeclaycomb8578]

I love this too. Such a simple lil’ cup to fill with all sorts of delicious joy. 🤔 thinking I might try some cornmeal substitute for the breadcrumbs. Stuff w/ chili or maybe some….. Thanks for sharing and kicking some creativity into my mind and palette 😋

Love your recipes,everytime whatever I make of yours… comes out perfect!!! I’m a 63 year old woman, who learns something new everytime I watch your posts!!! Thanks so much!!

[@grnpeepers2683]

I am sooo making these & thank you! JPoppers are my favorite appetizer! And nobody should have a fridge that doesn't at least have one jar of bacon drippings (greez lol) in it! I've kept a stash for almost 40 years & my mom still keeps hers! We use it in many things. Sometimes just a touch for flavor in things if you don't have bacon on hand will.do.the trick. And ya'll haven't lived until you use it for your pancakes. Best crispy edges ever!!😋🥓🥞🥓🤤🤗 Thank you again!❤️

[@crisfield4364]

I've got everything else but I'm running to the store for some fresh jalapenos. Those poppers have me drooling. ❤

[@caewalker9276]

Grated lemon rind would go amazing in it. Thank you. Looks beyond good

[@KyleLaulo]

I made these this weekend and they were delicious. One think I can say though is that a good non-stick muffin tin is a must. I have an aged muffin tin and even though I sprayed it, I was still struggling to remove the bites. Conversely, I did a second batch in a fresh non-stick tin and they popped out no problem.

[@ulaff]

I don't even know how you popped up on my recommended, but I have no regrets and continuous recipe ideas. I think you may just lead me to cook!

[@bradtaylor1766]

Super simple, affordable and the crowd goes wild ... Thank you sir!

[@naffoto425]

I made these bites today and substituted the panko bread crumbs with ground pork rinds, to make this a low-carb appetizer. They tasted a little like the pork rind but were great! I'm going to try them again with low-carb bread crumbs, made from low-carb bread. Thanks for the recipe!

[@BiblicalFlatEarth]

So you did NOT make “these bites.” Why folks always trying to change recipes and say “I made it but….”?

There were several other finger foods as well, but this was the one that got the most compliments and there were no leftovers.
