Why Smoke Jalapeños?
Smoking enhances the natural heat of jalapeños, giving them a mellow, slightly sweet, and smoky depth that pairs perfectly with creamy fillings. Whether you’re serving them as an appetizer, party snack, or game-day treat, these stuffed jalapeños will impress every bite!
Ingredients:
✔️ 10 fresh jalapeños, halved and deseeded
✔️ 200g cream cheese (softened)
✔️ 100g cheddar cheese, shredded
✔️ 100g crispy bacon or smoked sausage, finely chopped
✔️ 1 tsp garlic powder
✔️ 1 tsp paprika
✔️ ½ tsp black pepper
✔️ ½ tsp salt
✔️ 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
✔️ 10 slices thin-cut bacon (optional, for wrapping)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Jalapeños
Slice the jalapeños in half and remove the seeds and membranes (for a milder taste).
If you prefer extra heat, leave some seeds intact.
Step 2: Make the Filling
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar, crispy bacon, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Stir until everything is well combined and creamy.
Step 3: Stuff & Wrap
Fill each jalapeño half with the cheesy mixture.
(Optional) Wrap each stuffed jalapeño with a slice of bacon for an extra crispy, smoky bite.
Step 4: Smoking Time!
Preheat your Borniak Smoker to 100-120°C (212-248°F).
Place the stuffed jalapeños on the smoker rack, ensuring space between them for even smoking.
Use beechwood or hickory wood chips for an extra flavorful smoke.
Smoke for 1.5 to 2 hours until the jalapeños are tender and the cheese is beautifully melted.
If using bacon wrapping, smoke until the bacon is crispy.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy
Remove the jalapeños from the smoker and let them cool slightly.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with ranch dressing or smoky BBQ sauce.
