If you’ve been following Call Me PMc, you know that this is Bacon Month. I’ve been sharing two new bacon recipes each week for you. If you scroll all the way to the bottom of this post, you can see what everyone else has made as well.

For these stuffed jalapeno peppers, I cooked the bacon first instead of wrapping it around the pepper and grilling it. The thing I don’t like about wrapping the pepper is the bacon doesn’t get crispy. I like crispy bacon.

This is a great appetizer and perfect party or tailgating food. It’s particularly popular with guys. It’s also an easy recipe to make. Put it together hours beforehand and grill or bake when needed. It’s also good hot or room temperature. I bet it’s even good cold, but there’s never any leftover to try cold!

Prepping takes longer than the actual cook time leaving you time to enjoy the party and not standing over the grill! Actually, maybe I should stand over the grill longer and not at the bar……..

  1. I agree with you. I like the bacon flavor but not the soggy bacon. Feta cheese and cream cheese seems like an interesting combination. Definitely like the sound of this recipe.
