    Rick's Tropical Delight,[p]So how do you keep the bacon so tightly wrapped without toothpicks? Inquiring minds want to know.
  • Fidel,
    special bacon cement, mon![p]just stretch it as you wrap... kinda glues itself together as it comes to room temp, then chill for maximum smoke penetration at the beginning of the cook. i learned it by watching people on this forum, yo

    Rick's Tropical Delight,
    I think it helps to use a thin bacon too, I use Oscar Meyer because it is consistently thin enough to stretch and stay in place. -RP

  • AZRP,
    yes sir... that was kahn's regular sliced which is pretty thin and not smoked already... i want to do the smokin!

  • Rick's Tropical Delight,
    ...awwww..., might be cooking them real soon!

    Rick's Tropical Delight,
    I always try not to get any that says it is smoked. I'm suspicious that it may be liquid smoke. I normally get whatever is cheap and thin.[p]I like the shallot addition. I mix in some rub into the cheese too. Lots o flavor that way IMHO. I normally put in some other white cheese too, not a lot though.[p]

    Those look like nice big fat stuffin' peppers. What variety did you grow? And did they stay hot being that big?

  • Rick's Tropical Delight,[p]They look great! I made my first batch last night. They were a hit. Would you please share your cook time etc. What temp? Do you flip them?[p]Thanks!

    <p />G-man,
    those are jalapenos plants from the link below...[p]i've got 10 plants and they are all bustin with peppers and flowers for more! [p]they are pretty warm, but i took out all the seeds and ribs and each abt was only half the pepper so each bite had the perfect amount of heat ----> nirvana

  • stike,
    hey thanks... i've piped the last two batches of abt's by putting the cream cheese mixture in a gallon plastic zip-lock bag and forcing it all to a bottom corner and snipping off the corner, about a 3/8" hole. quick, easy, clean, no mess, no fuss. i love the food channel! hahaa[p]i expected something along those lines with the pix... that was kinda embarrassing. anyways, i've taken some steps as a result to protect myself... i think.

    Rick's Tropical Delight,
    i used to cut the chilled cream cheese up into slices. but once added crab meat, and piping it did the trick.[p](you see the hotdog pic i posted? heh heh he. me so funny)

  • stike,
    yep... i was just looking at that dog. i thought maybe it was a special "gourmet" style dark meat dog. i had a feeling i might be in that thread somewhere.[p]head2_200.jpg
