• adagok: 14 servings
• aktív idő: 2 hours
• teljes idő: 3 hours 15 minutes

Hozzávalók

14 Jalapeño Peppers (see note 1)

1 8 oz Package Cream Cheese, softened at room temperature

1 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

1/2 lb Smoked Brisket, chopped

2 lbs Regular-Cut Bacon

2 Tablespoons BBQ Rub (see note 2)

1 18 oz Bottle BBQ Sauce (see note 3)

Útmutatók

Grate 4 oz cheddar cheese

In a large bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and brisket until well incorporated

Using a sharp knife, cut the tops off each jalapeño and slice them in half lengthwise (top to bottom)

Remove the seeds and ribs with a spoon

Fill each pepper with about 2 tablespoons of the brisket and cheese mixture

Placed the jalapenos in the freezer for at least 90 minutes. This helps ensure the delicate peppers don’t overcook before the bacon is done

Preheat your smoker to 400 °F (anything between 375-425 is fine)

Wrap each stuffed pepper with two slices of bacon per the video above

Smoke indirectly for 45 minutes. Brush generously with BBQ sauce and cook for 30 minutes longer

Remove your Texas Twinkies from the smoker and enjoy!

Weber Kettle Instructions

Grate 4 oz cheddar cheese

In a large bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and brisket until well incorporated

Using a sharp knife, cut the tops off each jalapeño and slice them in half lengthwise (top to bottom)

Remove the seeds and ribs with a spoon

Fill each pepper with about 2 tablespoons of the brisket and cheese mixture

Placed the jalapenos in the freezer for at least 90 minutes. This helps ensure the delicate peppers don’t overcook before the bacon is done

Before removing the jalapenos from the freezer, light a full chimney of coals (I use about 100 Kingsford briquettes)

Wrap each stuffed pepper with two slices of bacon per the video above

When your coals are mostly ashed over (about 25 minutes), dump them on one side of the grill.

Using a temperature probe attached to the grill grate, close your top vent about 3/4 of the way when your grill temp starts to reach about 375 °F. Depending on your grill size and weather, you may need to close the bottom vent some also to get temps to steady around 400 °F. I’m using a 26″ Weber in the video

Add a chunk of smoking wood (apple, cherry, or hickory work well) and smoke the Texas Twinkies indirectly for 45 minutes. Brush generously with BBQ sauce and cook for 30 minutes longer

Remove your Texas Twinkies from the smoker and enjoy!
