Stuffed Jalapenos

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapenos

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the jalapenos in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes for less heat, if desired.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, pulled pork, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Peppers

    Spoon the cream cheese mixture into each jalapeno half, filling them generously.

  4. 4

    Wrap with Bacon

    Take a slice of bacon and wrap it around each stuffed jalapeno, securing it with a toothpick if necessary.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Place the wrapped jalapenos on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the filling is heated through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then serve warm as an appetizer.
