I have some Jalapenos, cream cheese, extra sharp cheddar..... Will try to post something later this week. Fred, Are you baking or grilling your poppers? .
You know, that’s the go-to meal for pretty much everybody on the planet! It just doesn’t get better than that.
Brian, you certainly captured the essence of the All-American meal! I went keto tonight myself with grilled turkey burgers.
i’m in Florida so we go to Publix and get the prepackaged bacon turkey burgers. I season them with Morton’s and then sauté them in pure Irish butter in the cast-iron skillet. I only sear them for about a minute on each side. Then put them on the flame and cook them completely. I do my eggs in the same skillet with the butter and grease from the burgers. I melt the desire cheese over them while they are still on the grill. Then I plate them and add condiments for each diner.
Made the poppers tonight. My recipe: 6 Jalapenos cut in half and remove seeds 4 oz cream cheese 4 oz extra sharp cheddar shredded 2 cloves of garlic minced 1/4 tsp pink salt This is enough to fill 12 Halves Mix everything together and fill jalapenos I direct grill my poppers for about 8 to 10 minutes until cheese starts to bubble. Then turn off the heat. The bottoms of the peppers will get a slight char. I wrapped a few with bacon, this seemed to keep the cheese from oozing out. Burgers are Turkey with Muenster cheese.
I turn on all 3 burners high to get surface hot then turn on low. Gauge on the lid is showing 350 while cooking. .
Giving me a pan and a spatula is like giving Hannibal Lecter a knife, but last week - just for the hell of it, I tried pickling and canning my crop of Banana Peppers which I had grown from seed. Amazingly, I was successful on all counts! The peppers sprouted and grew beautifully; I got more peppers then I really wanted from only three plants. The pickling and canning process went smoothly, and after about a month of sitting (the recipe suggested that), I will enjoy the medium-heat peppers. The best part is that the bride hates them, so they will all be mine.
Most everyone I know likes fried chicken wings. I like to roast them on the grill now and then. Rub with olive oil and season with kickin’ chicken seasoning, roast on grill and brush on homemade wing sauce for final two minutes. I can eat these till I’m sick.
