Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
- If you have them, slip on some latex gloves for the pepper prep. Cut the jalapenos in half lengthwise.

Smear cream cheese into each jalapeno half and then wrap with a bacon piece (1/2 slice). Secure by sticking a toothpick through the middle. Place on the rack in the baking sheet.

- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. (You don't want the bacon pieces to shrink so much they start to squeeze the jalapenos.) If after 45 minutes the bacon doesn't look brown enough, just keep cooking until the bacon is sizzling.
- Serve immediately, or they're also great at room temperature.
BEST EVER JALAPENO POPPERS
This is a recipe I made by taking the best of three or four popper recipes and combining them to make something that tastes wonderful. A frequent request at my house, and at others. I usually make 100 and put them in the fridge. They don't last long. Adjust the amount of bacon bits and type of shredded cheese to taste. Increase the recipe as necessary! Lots of tests helps to best figure out the way you like it. Be sure to wear rubber gloves while seeding the jalapenos -- they will burn.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese and bacon bits. Spoon this mixture into the jalapeno pepper halves.
- Put the milk and flour into two separate small bowls. Dip the stuffed jalapenos first into the milk then into the flour, making sure they are well coated with each. Allow the coated jalapenos to dry for about 10 minutes.
- Dip the jalapenos in milk again and roll them through the breadcrumbs. Allow them to dry, then repeat to ensure the entire surface of the jalapeno is coated.
- In a medium skillet, heat the oil to 365 degrees F ( 180 degrees C). Deep fry the coated jalapenos 2 to 3 minutes each, until golden brown. Remove and let drain on a paper towel.

JALAPENO POPPERS
The flavor of the peppers come through, but the cheese and bacon put some of the fire out. I believe the "tenderfoot" would even like these. I have even frozen these with good success.

Steps:
- Cut jalapenos in half and remove seeds and veins.
- (Use gloves to work with peppers).
- Fill jalpenos with cream cheese and wrap a slice of bacon around each one.
- Secure with a toothpick.
- Bake at 425 degrees until bacon appears to be done, about 15-20 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Look for fresh, firm peppers with smooth skin and a deep green color. Avoid peppers with blemishes or wrinkles.
- Wear gloves when handling peppers: The capsaicin in peppers can irritate your skin, so it's important to wear gloves when handling them. If you do get capsaicin on your skin, wash it off with soap and water immediately.
- Remove the seeds and ribs from the peppers: This will help to reduce the heat of the peppers. If you want your poppers to be extra spicy, leave some of the seeds in.
- Use a variety of fillings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to filling jalapeño poppers. Some popular options include cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and chorizo. You can also add diced vegetables, herbs, and spices to your filling.
- Cook the poppers until the filling is melted and the peppers are slightly crispy: This will ensure that the poppers are cooked through and delicious.
Conclusion:
Jalapeño poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there's sure to be a popper that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a crowd-pleasing snack, give jalapeño poppers a try!
