Poblano ABT ???

Options
Went to the store this morning and they were out of Jalepenos. I picked up some smaller Poblanos instead. Will these things be edible if i just do them like a Jalepeno ABT ? I really don't want to roast and peel them if I don't have to......
More meat please !! :-)

    If you're a "hotter is better" kinda ABT person, the Poblano will be very mild in comparison to a jalepeno.  Most recipes I've see for Poblanos start with scorching the skin and peeling.  I haven't tried Poblano any other way but hey, it's worth a shot, right?

    I've used poblanos many times for ABT's. They work great.

    I'm doing some like that in a few hours to go with some burgers. Everyone loves them.

    You sure they are poblanos and not serranos?  Reason I ask is that I am used to poblanos being quite a bit larger than jalas and serranos on the smaller side.  I'm sure they were labeled but if somehow switched the scoville rating for serranos is much higher than jalas or poblanos.
    And @XLentEGG -  you may have an indicator even before the AM.  Regardless, all good so enjoy.

    This just made my insides hurt. That would be a rough mistake.

    Poblano skin is tough. I would either blanch or blister the skin. Poblanos are lower on the Scoville scale than japs, but i have run across a few hot ones. 
    You could also make  rellanos poppers by stuffing the peper with cooked bacon, cream cheese and cheddar cheese. (Or whatever strikes your fancy).
