ABTs
Atomic Buffalo Turds
What You Will Need:
1. One dozen Jalapeno peppers
2. One tub Philidelphia Onion & Chive cream cheese
3. 12 Slices thick sliced bacon (Applewood smoked preferred)
4. Light brown sugar
How To Prepare It:
Cut the peppers off just below the stem.
Now slice the peppers in half length wise so you have little pepper boats.
Scrape out all seeds and most, but not all, of the white ribs (this is where the heat is, leave them if you want it real hot).
Spoon the cream cheese into the pepper halves and "turtle back" it so it rises out of the halves a little.
Take the 12 slices of bacon and cut them in half.
Pull each piece from both ends to stretch them out a little.
Place a couple cups of the brown sugar into a pie dish or something like it.
Place a piece of bacon flat out on the sugar and pat it a little, flip it over and pat again.
Wrap the bacon around the cream cheese stuffed pepper.
Repeat above until all 24 pieces are done.
How To Cook It:
Place the ABT's into a disposible shallow aluminium pan.
I cook mine on the smoker at 225-235 degrees for about 45 - 60 minutes.
Your time will vary depending on what you cook them on and at what temperature.
Ie.: 300 degrees would prolly take 30 -45 minutes.
They are done when the bacon begins to look crispy and the brown sugar turns dark caramel brown.
Do not over cook as the sugar will burn and ... well, you don't want that.
