SAUSAGE-STUFFED ABT'S

2lb. large, fresh Jalapenos
2 8oz blocks cream cheese(room temp)
1/2 c or more bulk sausage
2 lb bacon thinner the better

1. Slice fresh jalapeno's lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and "ribs" of each half, using a grapefruit spoon. (Wear latex gloves and don't touch your face)
2. Stuff the pepper halves with the mixture.
3. Place a thin layer of sausage on one half of a jalapeno; top with another half.
4. Wrap each jalapeno with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick, if necessary.
5. Bake at 250 degrees F for 1 - 1 1/2 hours or until bacon is done.

Those look really yummy! I'll keep this for next summer when we have an abundance of jalapenos!

Oh man, those look tasty

That's a great idea, using sausage instead of Little Smokies. I haven't found those in the stores here. But, sausage not in the casing, that's easy. We make that up ourselves.

Did you use breakfast sausage? Italian? Something else? Wow, possibilities.

This past summer I used hot dried italian sausage. I think it was cacciatore. Anyway I diced it up finely....worked great..

We use sweet Italian sausage................ but I xcan't imagine any sausage would not work well with this

Man, those look really good! I love stuffed Jalapenos. I use my cast iron corn stick pans for them. Each pepper lays perfectly in each of the stick indents. If you stuff them from the end, after coring them, you can use a rack like this:

Wonderful, LT! Saving this.

Looks really good, LT. They are a big hit around here. I had ABTs for the first time 3-4years ago at a BBQ Competition and fell in love. they are fantastic!

I like this idea--stuffing like sweet peppers!
