Texas Rockets Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Jalapenos Recipes

BACON-WRAPPED STUFFED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Make a lengthwise cut in each jalapeno, about 1/8 in. deep; remove seeds. Combine the sausage and cheese; stuff into jalapenos. Wrap each with a piece of bacon; secure with toothpicks., Grill, covered, over indirect medium heat for 36-40 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°, turning once. Grill, covered, over direct heat for 1-2 minutes or until bacon is crisp.

STUFFED BACON WRAPPED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• 1. Slice jalapenos in half and dig out seeds and veins. (I use the tip of a carrot peeler)
• 2. Fill the "cup" of the jalapeno with cream cheese (you can add cheddar cheese to the cream cheese too if you prefer)
• 3. If you have long slices of bacon, cut them in half. Then wrap bacon all the way around the jalapeno.
• 4. Place wrapped jalapeno on a pan covered with tin foil and sprayed with non stick cooking stray. (If you have a wire rack, place it on top of the pan to keep the jalapenos out of the grease)
• 5. Bake @ 300-350 until bacon is fully done.

BACON WRAPPED PIMENTO STUFFED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Start by cutting a "V" the length of each jalapeno pepper
• Stuff each jalapeno with pimento cheese until they are full.
• Starting at the top of each jalapeno, take a piece of bacon, and wrap as far down as you can go. Make sure to overlap so you don't have gaps anywhere on the pepper. I used 2 pieces of bacon per pepper.
• Prepare your grill and set coals off to one side. This is indirect grilling. You'll want to put your peppers on the side without the coals.
• Grill peppers 2.5 minutes per 4 sides or until charred to your liking.

BACON-WRAPPED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Mix cream cheese and Cheddar cheese together in a bowl until evenly blended. Fill each jalapeno half with the cheese mixture. Put halves back together and wrap each stuffed pepper with a slice of bacon. Arrange bacon-wrapped peppers on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy, about 15 minutes.

TEXAS-STYLE STUFFED JALAPENOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Slice the jalapenos in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the ribs and seeds (be sure to wear gloves while handling hot peppers). Set the jalapenos aside on a baking sheet with sides, cut sides up. In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded Cheddar, garlic powder, and salt until well mixed. Using a small spoon, stuff a generous amount of the cheese mixture into the jalapeno halves. You want them well stuffed but not overflowing too much or the cheese will run out when it melts. Wrap a half bacon slice around each jalapeno and secure it with a toothpick or place it on top to cover the cheese. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 450 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is crisp and brown and the cheese is melted. Remove the jalapenos from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

BACON WRAPPED CHEESY STUFFED JALAPEñOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (best for clean-up) or a silicone baking mat. Place a baking rack on top of the baking sheet. Set aside.
• Cut the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise; remove seeds and center membrane. Set aside.
• Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, and paprika together until combined. You could also do this by hand using a rubber spatula. Salt to taste - I add just a pinch. Spoon filling equally among all 24 jalapeño halves.
• Wrap each stuffed jalapeño with a half slice of bacon and stick a toothpick through the center to assure the bacon stays in place. Place each on the baking rack and bake for 25-28 minutes or until the bacon is crisp to your liking. I like to turn the oven to broil for the last minute or two to get things extra crispy. Serve immediately. Cover leftovers and keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

BACON WRAPPED JALAPENOS WITH VENISON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a large sheet pan with parchment. Set aside
• In a skillet over medium high heat, add the venison and the next 5 ingredient and cook until venison is browned. Set aside to cool.
• In a mixing bowl combine cream cheese, sliced onion, granulated onion and garlic and the shredded cheese. Mix well till thoroughly combined. Mix in the cooled venison.
• To assemble the jalapenos, take one of the jalapeno halves and stuff with about a tablespoon of filling. The amount of filling you use will depend on the size of your jalapenos. Starting at the end, wrap each stuffed jalapeno half with a slice of bacon. If you have smaller jalapenos you can use a half a piece of bacon or trim it as necessary. You don't want the bacon to overlap too much or it wont crisp up! Repeat until all the jalapeno halves are stuffed and wrapped.
• Place the peppers on the lined sheet pan and bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is golden brown and crispy! Serve warm or at room temperature!

TEXAS ROCKETS (JALAPENO)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine the cheeses, cilantro, sundried tomatoes and corn kernels together.
• Cut jalapeno peppers lengthwise down 1 side, leaving the other side intact (creating an open book); leave the top and stem on.
• Using the handle of a spoon scrape the seeds and membranes out of the pepper. Note if you want extra spice leave some inches.
• Spoon 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture into the cavity of each pepper.
• Wrap each pepper in bacon and secure it in place with a wooden toothpick.
• Prepare your barbecue. Place a drip pan under barbeque grates to prevent flare ups.
• Place a grill screen over the drip pan directly on top of the grill grate.
• Preheat barbeque to medium heat 325°F (160°C).
• Oil the grill grate to help prevent sticking.
• Place the stuffed peppers onto the grill plate and cook with the lid up for 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is crispy. Turn the peppers frequently for even cooking.

• Stuff the pepper halves with the cheese mixture.
• Wrap each pepper with a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Try to cover the whole top of the pepper so the cheese doesn't ooze out while it's cooking.
