Why Smoke Jalapeños?
Smoking enhances the natural heat of jalapeños while infusing them with a rich, deep smokiness. Using a Borniak Smoker, you get perfectly cooked, flavorful jalapeños with a melt-in-your-mouth filling.
Ingredients:
10 fresh jalapeños (halved and deseeded)
200g cream cheese
100g shredded cheddar cheese
100g crispy bacon bits
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat the Smoker: Set your Borniak Smoker to 110°C (225°F) and prepare wood chips for a rich smoky flavor.
Prepare the Filling: Mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon bits, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined.
Stuff the Jalapeños: Fill each jalapeño half with the cheese mixture, making sure they are evenly packed.
Smoke to Perfection: Place the stuffed jalapeños on the smoker rack and let them smoke for 1.5 to 2 hours until soft and lightly browned.
Serve & Enjoy: Let them cool slightly before serving—get ready for a delicious smoky, cheesy, and spicy bite!
Tips for the Best Stuffed Jalapeños:
