Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Been doing these a bit and they never disappoint.  Have tried cajun style, quinoa/squash/zucchini (veg), but for tonight's version, we went Mexican.  Sauteed onion, jalapeno and green chili.  Added pinto beans, chorizo and a mix of cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper and then mixed with rice and cheese.  No measurements, just what looked right.  Cut poblano peppers and stuffed.


On the egg at 350 with some wrapped corn to steam along side.


After about 40 mins had to arrange in a grill pan to avoid spillage, and topped with cheese.  Corn came out of the wrapper for some charing.


Pulled at about an hour and the corn got slathered with a Mexican Street Corn recipe (Mayo/Sour Cream/Lime/Cilantro/Garlic/Cumin/Chili Powder/Salt) and topped with feta cheese.  Cotija cheese works better, but always forget something when shopping.


Dish can be made a lot of different ways, but the BGE adds something that you can't get with any other cooking method.  Plates were liked clean :-)

    Perfect!

    Whenever I cook ABTs, it's always poblanos.....they're the perfect pepper to me. 

    Well done, Sir!

    Looks incredible.  

    For you guys using poblano peppers for stuffing are roasting and removing the skin?

    I always roast and remove the skins if I am stuffing the pepper inside of a chicken breast for example. I would do the same if preparing like the OP did....though it looses its form so may need some support.  I don't remove if stuffing and deep frying. I roast when using in salsa. Bottom line...it depends.

    Thanks for the comments. Agree with @northGAcock on the "it depends". Tonight's had the skin to hold the form.

    If you stuff peppers, you don't remove the skin unless you want them to fall apart.

    Outstanding! I have to try that Mexican street corn. 


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    That looks delicious!! I haven't had a stuffed pepper in years, probably 20+. Only bell peppers at that. And the corn! Wow! Thanks for posting this... definitely bookmarked! 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
