Patti was having lunch out with her good pal Peggy and, of course, they tossed around recipe ideas. Everyone loves jalapeno poppers for tailgating and Green Mountain makes one of the best with their Davy Crockett. It fits so easy into your car because the legs fold up and become handles. Ken thought these poppers Peggy came up with were a great idea. They not only have his favorite green vegetable: jalapenos, but Patti stuffed them with cheesy shredded potatoes and garlic then wrapped the peppers with bacon. They make a great appetizer for the big game and/or a side dish for your favorite meat or seafood.We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Louisiana, Green Mountain, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Pacific Living Outdoor Oven, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.
The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can even do some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.
Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….
