Grilled Jalapeño Poppers Recipe

These are fantastic! However, they are extremely spicy. I must confess, I opted to bake them in the oven, and they turned out perfectly. I also enhanced the cheese mixture with garlic and onion powder, which added a delicious twist.

These were absolutely delicious! It was my first time trying this recipe, so I decided to only make half of it. To make things easier, I opted to microwave the bacon, crumble it, and then combine it with the cheese mixture instead of individually wrapping each jalapeno with bacon. I also chose to cut the jalapenos in half, remove the seeds, and stuff them, rather than preparing them in slivers. Additionally, I finely chopped half a jalapeno and added it to the cheese mixture. I grilled them on a sprayed grill pan for about 30 minutes. The result was fantastic – grilling the jalapenos toned down the spiciness, making them just the right level of heat! Delicious!

This is the best jalapeno popper recipe I've ever found! I've been using it for about 3-4 years now. The first time I made them, I followed the original recipe (which is delicious by itself), but now I also add onion powder to it. I'm an avid hunter, and when dove season starts on September 1st here in Missouri, I always top the cheese filling with a single dove breast before wrapping it in bacon and grilling it on my Weber grill. It turns out absolutely delicious every time!

I elevated this recipe from a 3-star to a 5-star by incorporating my own twist! I doubled the parmesan, kept the tops intact to secure the cheese, and partially cooked the bacon before wrapping it. This resulted in a perfectly crispy bacon after grilling, while still maintaining its flexibility.

I adjusted the recipe to make 6 servings for a cozy appetizer for two. I decided to give the cheese mixture a bit of a kick by adding a sprinkle of chili powder and cumin. Rather than grilling the poppers, I opted to bake them at 375 degrees for around 20 minutes. I wrapped half of them in bacon, which added a tasty twist, but they were just as delicious without it. Overall, these were a breeze to prepare and absolutely scrumptious!

These poppers are fantastic! I prepare them annually for our grilling competition, and they are always a hit with everyone. I stick to the original recipe but now I precook the bacon, dice it, and incorporate it into the filling. This modification makes it easier for me to grill them. Additionally, I often have leftover filling, which I serve cold with crackers, and it's just as delicious.

These were absolutely fantastic! Despite some suggestions to cut them in half, I decided to keep them whole to ensure a generous filling. I wrapped them in thick slices of bacon, ensuring that each piece was fully covered. Cooking them with the filling side down initially allowed the bacon to cook thoroughly before the cheese started to melt out. They received glowing reviews, and I will definitely be making them again!

I absolutely loved this recipe! I followed the filling instructions as stated but felt it could use a bit less garlic powder and a bit more Parmesan cheese - maybe 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 3 tablespoons of Parmesan. Aside from that, it was delicious! I had to modify the process slightly as I used a standing pepper grill rack, but it didn't alter the taste of the dish at all. I chopped the bacon and incorporated it into the filling since I couldn't wrap the peppers. With these minor tweaks, this dish will definitely become a staple in our backyard gatherings!

Absolutely amazing! I decided to enhance the cheese mixture with chives and skipped the bacon, but it turned out delicious anyway. To prevent the cheese from melting everywhere, I placed them on aluminum foil before grilling, and it worked like a charm. I'm planning on making them again tonight, this time adding cooked bacon bits on top of each one as I prefer cooking them in foil. Thank you for such an enjoyable recipe! My husband and family request these all the time, and I can't wait to serve them at our next BBQ for a larger group of friends.

Fantastic and packed with heat for those who enjoy spicy flavors! For bigger jalapeños, consider wrapping them fully with a single slice of bacon to hold all the filling. Once the bacon is nicely browned, move the peppers to the top grill rack (if available) to allow the cheese to completely melt and create a delicious crust.

I personally prepare these by slicing off the tops of whole peppers, removing the seeds and as many of the ribs as I can. I stuff them with a mixture of grated cheddar and Monterey cheese, along with diced shrimp, and then wrap them in bacon. Grilling them with smoke creates a BBQ essential, according to all of my guests.

Excellent recipe. I will definitely be making it again.

They were excellent! I decided to enhance the flavor by incorporating garlic and herb cheese spread along with half the amount of cream cheese. I prepared them in the air fryer, and they turned out wonderfully!

Outstanding every single time

Impressive Recipe! I must say, this recipe is absolutely fantastic! The flavors are amazing! The only tweak I made was placing them under the broiler for the final cooking. It would have been helpful to have specific instructions for grill temperature and browning the top. Nevertheless, it turned out to be a flawless appetizer!

Wow!! These treats are absolutely delightful!!

These bites are delicious. The only tweaks I made were oven-baking them and lightly pre-cooking the bacon, although next time I would prefer to cook the bacon a bit longer.

Loved these poppers! Even family members who usually avoid spicy food enjoyed them. Here's a tip: I turned off the center burner and placed the poppers on foil over the turned off burner. It made cleanup much easier. They were ready in about 25 minutes.

These were amazing! I prepared them on my grill/smoker combo. It was our first time making poppers, and it was a blast. Jalapenos are like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. I tried four that weren't spicy at all, but the last one felt like fire! I will definitely make them again.

These stuffed peppers were a huge success! Initially, I was concerned that the recipe might be too much for 6 people due to the large size of my peppers, but to my surprise, there weren't any leftovers. A few peppers ended up slightly charred in order to cook the bacon thoroughly, but it actually enhanced the flavor and my guests enjoyed it. I will definitely be making these again. I followed the recipe as is and used all organic ingredients.
