Warm up the grill for your next BBQ with these flavorful poppers! The jalape�os are filled with cream cheese spiked with our Ranch Seasoning and then wrapped in bacon for the perfect bite. They disappear quickly, so plan on cooking up several rounds.
Ingredients
- 12 jalape�os
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 12 ounces bacon
- 1 tablespoon �
- toothpicks
Directions
- Cut the jalape�os lengthwise and remove the seeds, leaving the stem intact. It is a good idea to wear gloves for this step.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese and Ranch Seasoning. Mix well to combine.
Spoon a dollop of cream cheese inside each jalape�o shell. Trim bacon to fit, and wrap a slice around each popper, covering as much of the cream cheese as you can. Secure the bacon with a toothpick.
Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium heat, and oil the grate. Place the poppers on the grill, cream cheese side up, and cook for 3-5 minutes, until the bacon is crispy.
Flip the poppers and repeat. Some of the cream cheese might escape during this step, but that's okay.Arrange the grilled poppers on a platter and devour!
Note
For more great flavor combinations, try substituting Chili Powder - New Mexico , orHabanero Garlic Pepper in place of the Ranch Seasoning. If you liked these poppers, try another version with our Voodoo Seasoning.
