Jalapeno poppers is another BBQ classic. It’s a great snack to enjoy while doing a longer cook. It usually takes 20-30 minutes to grill them, and they’re easy to make. Here’s how.
Servings 1 popper
Ingredients
- 1 jalapeno
- 1 bacon strip
- 1 piece of cheddar cheese (it should fit inside the pepper)
- 1 toothpick
Instructions
- Start by cutting off the thick end of the jalapeno peppers. Using a small knife, remove the pits and interior of the peppers, so you can stuff them with cheese. Cut pieces of cheddar cheese that will fit inside the peppers. Wrap each pepper with a bacon strip, using tooth picks to fixate the bacon. Make sure you wrap the bacon over the opening at the thick end, so the cheese stays inside.
- Place them on your grill for 20-30 minutes at 175° C / 350° F, or longer if you run at lower temperatures. Remove them from the grill, and enjoy with a cold beer. It doesn’t get simpler.
Henrik,
Looks good. Do you stand them up to cook or just lay them down and move them around while they cook?

Thanks! I place them with the pointy end between the grill grates, so they are effectively standing up.
