Ingredients

  • 10 fresh jalapeno peppers
  • 7-8 Tbsp cream cheese
  • 1 package 1 lb bacon, thinly sliced
  • 1 cups turkey stuffing with caramelized onions and mushrooms

Instructions

  • Cut jalapeno peppers in half, spooning out the white flesh and seeds. Do not remove stems. Soak in water for 30 minutes to 1 hour for a mildly hot taste.
  • Prepared turkey stuffing and caramelized onions and mushrooms. Mix all together.
  • Stuff jalapeno halves with a smidgen of cream cheese, about 1 tsp per one pepper half, followed by turkey stuffing. Then wrap in bacon. You may want to use toothpicks to help keep bacon tightly wrapped.
  • Place on a smoker / grill preheated to 225F-250F and smoke for 1.5 - 2 hours. Bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers are done when they acquire rich maroon/brown/burgundy color (depends on the wood you are using for smoking).
