Now That's What I'm Talking About

After reading here about these ABT's, I tried a batch last weekend. Mixed cream cheese with chipotles in adobo for filling inside of whole seeded jalepenos. Heat scale was all over the place and one of them burned me so bad I was scared to have another.

Fast forward to this weekend: I had to try again. This time cut the chiles in half lengthwise and really focused on removing all seeds and ribs of core. Stuffed with cream cheese blended with shredded cheddar/jack mix and a little sprinkling of dried ancho chile powder. Wrapped each in half slice of bacon, cooked on smoker for just over 4 hours 'til bacon was just right.

Results are outstanding! Very tasty with just the right amount of heat for us.

Those look really good. I'm the only one in my house that eats them, so I make them all for me.

Looks great. I tried pablanos last weekend and they were GREAT! They were big enough that they could be halved and big enough to hold a hot of stuffing. Perfect size for a piece of bacon to hold it all together. Not very hot, but deeelicious.

Anaheim chiles are another safe alternative with less heat.
