Best 9 Jalapeño Poppers With Smoked Gouda Recipes

SMOKED GOUDA-CHORIZO JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brown the chorizo in a skillet over medium-high heat, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Add the gouda, cream cheese, sour cream, red onion, hot sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the egg.
• Press the mixture into the jalapeños and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden and bubbling, 20 minutes.

HICKORY SMOKED JALAPEñO POPPERS

Steps:

• 1. Cut tops off of jalapenos. Using the end of a spoon or fork, stick down inside and rotate the fork. This will loosen the membranes and seeds. Then dump out the seeds. Do this a couple of times if needed. UPDATED 12/2013: Slice off a piece of pepper longways, stuff, wrap in bacon, and smoke. I find this way easier!
• 2. Place cream cheese in a mixing bowl and turn the mixer on. Grate 8 oz of cheese then add to cream cheese. Beat for a minute or so.
• 3. Put cheese/cream cheese mixture into jalapeno and push down inside with finger.
• 4. Tear a small piece of bread off. I like using the heal of the bread, and place inside the top of jalapeno. This will help keep the cheese inside the pepper.
• 5. Wrap pepper with bacon, starting by draping one end of bacon over the opening of pepper. Then bring bacon down to the tip of pepper and begin wrapping it back up to the top. Secure with a toothpick.
• 6. Smoke on the smoker at about 200-250° for about 1- 1/2 hr.
• 7. Timing will depend on smoker temp. The best way to tell if they are done, make a couple more than you need to serve and test one out after one hour.

SMOKY BACON-WRAPPED JALAPEñO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Add the cream cheese, smoked Gouda, Cheddar, chives, lime zest, lime juice, salt and pepper to a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly until evenly combined.
• Divide the cream cheese mixture between the jalapeño halves, pressing to fill all the way to the top edge.
• Wrap a piece of bacon around each stuffed jalapeño so the ends of the bacon lie underneath. Place the wrapped jalapeños, stuffed-side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the bacon is crispy and the cheese mixture is just beginning to bubble out from the top and bottom of the jalapeños, 16 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool 10 minutes before serving.

SMOKED GOUDA-CHORIZO JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Special Equipment: parchment paper
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Brown chorizo in a skillet over medium-high heat, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and place into a large mixing bowl. Add the cheese, red onion, egg, cream cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, and salt and pepper, to taste. Press into jalapeno halves and assemble on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake until golden and bubbly, about 20 minutes.

ROASTED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut 1/3 of each pepper off lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place on a baking sheet. If peppers do not sit flat on the baking sheet, slice a thin piece off the bottom of the pepper so it will not roll around.
• Mash the feta, cream cheese, shredded cheese, cilantro, and onion together and stuff the peppers with the mixture. Roast for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is brown at the edges and bubbly.

GRILLED JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• CAUTION: Jalapenos can be very hot. Use caution and wear rubber gloves if you have skin sensitivity. Keep hands away from face and eyes. Wash hands thoroughly with warm water and soap when finished handling peppers.
• Slice peppers from stem to tip on 1 side. Carefully squeeze ends of pepper (like a change purse) and scoop out seeds and veins with a small spoon. Stuff each pepper with shredded cheese. Cut bacon slices in half. Wrap each pepper with a piece of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
• Preheat grill. Grill peppers 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until bacon is cooked, but not crisp.
• Remove from grill and serve while hot.

JALAPEñO POPPERS

Steps:

• Soften cream cheese, grate the gouda, partially drain the can of crushed pineapple and combine all with the bacon bits.
• While that rests, cut the stem ends off 1 to 2 dozen jalapeños, depending on their size. Remove the seeds and the membrane. Using a small spoon or knife stuff each jalapeño.
• Place the filled jalapenos in a rack and cook on the grill or in the oven at 350° for 30-45 minutes, again, depending on the size.
• Keep some of the cheese mixture to serve with them because some of the cheese will bubble out. I use a foil bread pan and cut X's in the bottom, place upside down and press the jalapeños into each hole. Can usually get 6-8 in each. Makes cleanup easy, just throw them away after. I also have a jalapeño rack I got at a store, but the foil is way easier and will accommodate various sized jalapeños. All love these with the hot peppers and the sweetness of the pineapple. The smoked gouda is a nice touch and differs greatly from cheddar. Can also dice jalapeño to add to the cheese mix. ENJOY.
