These smokey, spicy and creamy jalapeno poppers are not only delicious, but so simple to make. Never tried one before? Once you’ve tasted just one bite of these you’ll be wondering how you ever lived without them. No BBQ will ever be the same…

Prep time: 30 mins
Smoking/Cooking time: 90 mins

Ingredients:
12 medium – large Jalapenos (you can usually find these in Woolies/Coles)

1 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt

Step Tree: In a large bowl, mix your grated cheddar, cream cheese, paprika, pepper and salt into a batter.

Step Four: Spoon cheese batter into each jalapeno half, filling to the top.

Step Five: Wrap each half jalapeno with bacon, then hold in place with a tooth pick (or in the case of our photos, skewers)
