Stuffed Poblanos

I made these for the first time last night. I made up the filling using the "clean out the fridge" recipe.

First I partially cooked the poblanos in the oven for 15 minutes at 400 degrees. I could have egged them, but I made them in the early afternoon, way before egg lighting time. The skins got slightly wrinkly, and I was able to peel them off easily.

I removed the seeds after slicing a small slice from the side.
Now the filling -

1/2 lb. pork sausage
1 andouille sausage (cooked)
sauteed onion, red pepper, green pepper
I browned these up together.

Add fresh garlic,
seasoned with Dizzy Pig Jamaican Firewalk (generously)and Red Eye Express,
cumin seed
egged corn (cut off the husk)
some cooked white rice for a little substance

Stuffed em:

On the mini with some apple wood smoke - 350 degree dome for 20 minutes. I used a pizza stone as a heat barrier under my pan. Added a touch of monterey jack on top at the very end.

These came out great. Only a little spicy. The peppers have an awesome flavor that goes along well with the egg smoke flavor. I will be making these again.

    Those peppers look real good Faith

  • Bente, Thank you. I am not wild about stuffed green peppers, so I never make them. The flavor of the poblano is so much better tasting to me. Are you sure you can't convince the fam to try them instead?

    Faith,

    Two of my favourites there, Andouille and poblanos. We only get little tiny ones here and can't get andouille.

    Faith,

    Those look very good. I am not a bell pepper fan but Poblanos are so much milder IMHO. I will have to give that a try....

    Very nice Faith, great looking food. Your stuffing sounds very tasty. Thank you for the details.

    I took the lazy method and just stuffed with cheese and some leftover egged chicken pieces. The cook was 375° dome for 45 minutes. I didn't roast the poblano first.

    The pepers sure take on a nice flavor when egged.

  • GG, I liked roasting the poblanos first because it allowed me to pull the skins off, but yet they still retained their shape. Yours look good too. I bought the poblanos at the farmer's market for 3 for $1!. If I knew they would be that good, I would have bought more!

    I haven't taken the time to roast and remove skin, however, with your suggestion I will give it a try next time.

    it is going to be a little hard to find.. because it was in a thread buried somewhere i still don't know what it is under but in the thread randy was talking about stuffing peppers and he said the recepie is what he uses for stuffed fritos

    Appetizer, Stuffed Fritos & Mushrooms, AZRP


    INGREDIENTS:
    1 Lb Italian Sausage (casings removed)
    1/2 Lb Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
    1/2 Cup Marinara Sauce
    Button Mushrooms
    Frito Scoops
    Sour Cream



    Preparation :
    1 Remove stems from the mushrooms and scrape out the gills and some of the flesh with a melon baller to allow more stuffing. Mix together the sausage, cheese and marinara sauce until thoroughly incorporated. Stuff the mushrooms or Frito Scoops with the mixture. Cook indirectly on a raised grid at 350°F. dome temp. until the meat reaches 170°F internal temp., about 20-30 minutes.
    2 Put a dollop of sour cream on and serve.

  • Hey there, Beli. Thanks. I'm sure they were no match for yours. Actually they were about 4 inches long, not including stem. What size are the poblanos in Mexico??
