somebody shut me the fark up.
Frozen precooked noodles, the kind you just boil for a couple minutes to warm up. However, I used them straight out of the bag in frozen form.
I wrapped each one with 1/3 slice of bacon stuck together with a toothpick through the center of the tortellini and I cooked them on my kettle offset from the coals until the bacon started getting crispy (I did not measure cooker temp). The noodles firmed up a tad from the dry cooking as opposed to boiling them, but were still soft and not overly chewy at all, probably because of being basted with the bacon fat.
I did not apply any rub or anything because I wanted to see what they were like plain first. Next time I will try experimenting with some rubs and even glazes.
They tasted really damn good, seriously, these were well worth the effort...actually there was very little effort involved, these were easy as hell to put together.
I really liked them dipped in the roasted red pepper sauce. It will be fun to experiment with other sauces and glazes. I will also try other tortellini besides cheese ones.
I had some great beer to pair with it, but I didn't want to drink any at lunch. They are all large bottles of stuff that are int he higher ABV range, so drinking them guarantees a little wobbliness. More of a dinner thing or a weekend thing...

Yes, it was homemade. I don't really follow a recipe when I make it, I eyeball it really. It's roasted red peppers, cream, onion (I used carmelized), parmesan, garlic, basil, salt and pepper all in a blender and pureed.
