I think pepper jack is a little overkill

Pepper Jack is over kill. That is why I suggested Jack.

Erasmus, do tell.

About the cookie? Here? I think not. Are you trying to get me banned? :wave

Gosh Scott i got that freeze the cheese for the peppers from a local bar owner who is also a low carber and who does them naked at his resturant for low carbers. The cheese melts inside the pepper while the pepper cooks. Frozen cheese doesn't slice well and gets real crumbly but melting it works fine. he uses cheddars and for some picky folk cream cheese. he even make stuffed habeneros for the strong of tongue folk.

Sorry Erasmus--don't know how I read "pepper jack"! :confused Yea, you are right Jack would be good!

Maybe I'm bizarre, I've always preferred cream cheese in my poppers. Jack and Cheddar can be good, and I even had them once at this place which did them with mozerella, but it is so much harder to keep it from oozing all over the place than it is with cream cheese.

Actually I think everytime I've had them in a restaurant they were made w/ cream cheese Nullo. I love just about any kind of cheese so to me they all sound good! mmmmmm cheese!

2big, I'm a pretty firm believer that frozen cheese is compromised cheese. That being said, this may be an application where it works.

It's more than that. It's a dead cheese.

Nullo, yes there is the cream cheese camp. I'm not in it. And you can't make me. :wave


All this talk of poppers got me a goin'. Now I don't much care for the grassy notes of green chiles, jalopenos included. But it just so happens that Fresnos are in season. They are red and look like a Jalopeno with similar heat. I hot smoked them for an hour, then pealed and seeded them and chilled them down. Later I put some jack/cheedar in them and froze them to firm (not hard). Then on high heat I grilled them till the cheese started to flow. Then, here's the cute part, I put them on this grill accessory that I have that has half inch holes instead of bars for grilling little things. Only I put on upside down so that the plate was a few inches above the grill allowing me slip the tip of the chile through the hole. Anyway I just warmed then at that point and waited for the cheese to crust up.

I know, not traditional, but tasty. :yes
