I first tried my hand at making these last weekend. After seeing so many pics of these tasty looking nuggets, I just had to give it a shot. No pics of the first attempt, but they turned out great!
I had some friends over for a birthday dinner last night and tried them again. The peppers were gigantic and had to sort through massive piles to find some that were not the size of bananas!
I used cream cheese, garlic powder and a somewhat sweet rib rub as the filling. Here they are halved, stuffed and wrapped with a whole slice of bacon.
It was just four of us, so I didn't make too many. That is whole pound of bacon there! Cooked indirect for about an hour, while I prepped the rest of dinner.
One too many of those tasty Ponto's sidelined any effort to go beyond this last pic.
I know these are nothing new to most of you, but I finally decided it was time to do this myself and am very glad I did!
