Blue Cheese Jalapeno Poppers
If you love blue cheese, and you love jalapeno poppers, your worlds are colliding because combining blue cheese into a jalapeno poppers is the most epic dish ever!
Servings: 8 appetizer size servings
Ingredients
- 8 oz high quality blue cheese or gorgonzola
- ½ block cream cheese- 10 oz.
- 8 jalapeños seeds removed and cut in half (like little jalapeño boats)
- 1 pack bacon cooked halfway-3/4 way ( I usually microwave thick cut bacon for about 3 minutes and it is perfectly partially cooked)
Instructions
- Place cream cheese on the counter to get to room temperature while prepping the jalapeños.
- Meanwhile, remove seeds from the jalapeño poppers. I find this the easiest to do by cutting off the tops and using a butter knife to remove the seeds while running under water in the sink. Cut the jalapeños in half.
- Crumble the blue cheese and mix with the cream cheese in a bowl. Spread the cheese mixture into each jalapeno. Next, place a piece of bacon the same size as the jalapeno right on top of the cheese; the cheese will help the bacon adhere to the pepper.
- Heat your grill for medium direct heat, about 350 degrees. Places your jalapeno boats onto the grill and let grill for 8-10 minutes or until char marks have formed and the cheese has begun to get bubbly.
- Serve immediately. Prepare to be amazed!
