Spicier, Cheesier Stuffed Jalapenos Wrapped in Bacon

I never liked the thought of cream cheese in my jalapeno poppers so this variation uses sticks of Tillamook® pepper Jack cheese to turn up the heat and flavor. Your friends will love this if they can handle the heat.

Step: 1

Slice caps off the jalapeno peppers; reserve. Core and seed the peppers.

Step: 2

Cut pepper Jack cheese into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Cut each slice into sticks the thickness of a pencil. Stuff jalapeno peppers with as many cheese sticks as will fit. Secure caps back on the jalapenos, using at least 2 toothpicks per pepper.

Step: 3

Wrap 1 slice bacon around each jalapeno pepper. Keep bacon secure by skewering the end on one of the toothpicks.

Step: 4

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill jalapeno peppers, watching for flare-ups, until bacon is browned, about 20 minutes.
