Stuffed Jalapeno Popper Burgers image

When I was young my mother would reward me for practicing the piano. My favorite request was a trip into town,to the only gas station for miles around, and I would get my favorite food on earth; Jalapeno Poppers! This burger is inspired by my favorite childhood treat! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I'm not a big fan of jalapenos, but I still enjoyed these burgers. The cheese and bacon helped to balance out the spice.

I had trouble finding poblano peppers at my local grocery store, so I used bell peppers instead. They worked just fine.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to use a little less salt. Other than that, it's perfect!
