Ingredients:
- 24 medium jalapeno peppers
- 1 lb Hines Chorizo Fresh Sausage
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 12 strips of Hines Jalapeno Bacon
Instructions:
- Prep the Bacon and Jalapeños:
- Start by cutting each strip of bacon in half.
- Slice each jalapeños lengthwise and remove the seeds (be careful with those seeds if you don't want too much heat!).
- Stuff the Jalapeños:
- In a bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese and Hines Chorizo Fresh Sausage.
- Stuff each jalapeños half with the cheese and sausage mixture.
- Wrap with Bacon:
- Wrap each stuffed jalapeños with a half strip of bacon.
- Secure the bacon-wrapped jalapeños with a toothpick to keep everything in place.
- Grill to Perfection:
- Preheat your grill to medium heat.
- Place the bacon-wrapped jalapeños on the grill and cover. Grill for about 35 minutes, flipping them once halfway through the cooking time.
- After 35 minutes, remove the cover and grill the jalapeños over direct heat for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the bacon is nice and crispy.
- Enjoy!:
- Remove the jalapeños from the grill and let them cool slightly.
- Dig in and enjoy the perfect combination of spicy, cheesy, and smoky flavors!
