Jalapeno Poppers

[dport7]

Not Q, so if this is in the wrong place Mods, please move it for me.

Picked peppers last night. Thought Jalapeño poppers instead of chipotle,
so, sliced some of them in half.

cleaned them out with a 1/2 tea spoon measurer, laid them out.
Seeds for next years stock.

My boys are always telling me they like em hot, so, I seeded and sliced some Scotch Bonnet" habanero" to lace into the poppers. More seeds for next years stock.

After I laced them with habanero, I filled them with cream cheese, not to much though, I didn't want to ruin the experience.
I also sprinkled them with smoked cayenne pepper.

After that, I rolled them in Panko crumbs, for extra crunch.

Then into the freezer for a couple hours till frozen solid and vacuum sealed
20 or so in a bag, and back in the freezer.

When I want them, I'll take one bag out, wrap in bacon, and over the open fire till the bacon is done and enjoy the sweet heat.

Thanks for lookin.

Excellent! What month do you start your seeds?

Those look Great!

We like a little shredded cheddar on top also.

Down here, zone 7, 1st batch around end of Feb. then every three weeks till mid april. Thats for peppers. This year I ended up with 40 or so nice plants, out of probably 70 starts. Peppers are tough for me to get going.

Good idea, I will put a small slice on before I wrap them in bacon. Will give
added flavor.

I like sharp cheddar!

Great idea

I can't take credit for it Big George, A Lady at the farmers market told me about how she does that with hers.

I just amped them up with some heat to my taste.

Yep gloves are a must for prepping hot peppers (especially them habaneros) but at least wash your hand WELL afterwards and for heavens sake don't take a leak before you do!!!:shocked:
Good lookin' ABTs pardner!:thumb:

I LOL now, I did that a couple years back with the habanero peppers, boy did I get burnt, and yes, I did rub my eyes and go to the bathroom. It's funny now, wasn't that day.

last year I smoked cayenne peppers till dry in my okie joe, they were real crumbly, so, I thought, I'll just crumble them up with my fingers, wrong,
My fingers burnt for three days, bad burning.

I nicked the one glove just a little when doing these, so I stopped and changed it, no chances.

Your welcome cowgirl. I learn a lot from people at the farmers market.
It's every Wednesday, just a couple miles from my house.

The people that sell there have a lot of good advice and sell a lot of good homemade stuff.
