Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prep the Peppers

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Slice the mini sweet peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Peppers

    Spoon the cheese mixture into each half of the pepper, filling them generously.

  4. 4

    Wrap with Bacon

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

  5. 5

    Smoke the Peppers

    Place the bacon-wrapped peppers on the smoker grates and smoke for about 1.5 hours, or until the bacon is crispy and the peppers are tender.

  6. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the peppers from the smoker, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
