BEST ABTs - Hawaiian Atomic Buffalo Turds - 52 APPETIZERS RECIPES

I recently did this same post... But this one is better!

When I posted my ABT recipe I was contacted by a friend who explained this "new" (to me) technique.  And sure enough, this one is better.

The new technique is to split the jalapeno length wise, de-seed, de-membrane (Those are the HOT spicy parts, the green is only mildly spicy, making these favorites for everyone, not just the masochistic heat lovers).  Then fill with the pineapple laced cream cheese.  Then fit back together, wrap tightly with the bacon, secure with toothpicks and bake (or Grill) until bacon is cooked.

So, this deserves a repost of the all new (to me) BETTER Hawaiian Atomic Buffalo Turds...

Yeah yeah, I know terrible name.  In polite circles these are also called Hawaiian ATBs.  My back yard is not as polite as it should be.

And before I get to deep in the write up, don't be afraid of the jalapeno.  Amazingly enough, the roasting brings out the natural sugars found in all vegetables.  That plus the combination of the cream cheese mixed with sweet pineapple creates a balance of the remaining heat and the sweet (alnog with the savory BACON... Could these be the perfect culinary combo)?

Well, probably not but they sure are tasty.

And if you look real close you can see a couple of yellow peppers mixed in with the green Jalapenos.  Same idea, just Sweet Banana Peppers in place of the jalapeno.every once in a while I get wimps in my back yard.

Highly recommended you give these a try.  They will become the talk of the party!

OK... Here's what I did...

BEST ABTs - Hawaiian
Atomic Buffalo Turds

Ingredients

• 12 Medium Jalapeno Peppers, cut in half, seeds and membrane carefully scrapped out WITHOUT piercing the sides)
• 1 Small can Crushed Pineapple
• 1 Brick of Cream Cheese
• 12 Slices Thick Cut Bacon

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450 Degrees (or prepare a HOT Grill with coals bunched only on one side, creating a direct and indirect heat source).
2. Prep the jalapenos by cutting the peppers in half lengthwise, Remove the membrane and seeds inside. (Wear gloves if you have them to avoid contact with the oils from the membrane and seeds.), Be careful to not cut through the sides.
3. Prep the stuffing, mix the pineapple and cream cheese together (easy in a stand mixer),
4. Next, stuff the cream cheese pineapple mix into each of the pepper halves, replace the halves, making a whole.
5. Wrap the  pepper with a slice of bacon and continue to wrap around the side. Secure with a toothpick.
6. Arrange on a parchment paper lined rimmed cookie sheet if you are baking in an oven, or arrange over the indirect heat section of the grill. Close the lid or back in an oven for 20-25 minutes until the bacon has cooked through.
7. Serve Warm and ENJOY!
