These are so good! Creamy with a kick!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These jalapeno poppers will not win a beauty contest, but once you taste them you'll realize it's what's inside that counts. The filling is creamy, hearty, and flavorful. We love the addition of ground beef; it bulks up the filling. Buffalo wing sauce makes these poppers a little different too. You taste the Buffalo flavor but it's not overpowering. Bacon adds smoky flavor and holds everything in. These are the perfect appetizer for a casual event, game day or a Super Bowl party.

How To Make bacon buffalo cream cheese jalapenos

1
Cook and drain ground meat. Set aside.

2
Wash jalapenos. Cut the stems off first then cut them lengthwise. Scrape all the seeds out. (You may want to wear gloves for this part.)
3
Line a cookie sheet with parchment. Lay out the jalapeno halves. Preheat oven to 375 degreed.
4
Mix together the cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, 4 oz shredded cheddar (reserve the other 4 oz for later), cooked hamburger meat, and Buffalo wing sauce.
5
Fill the jalapeno halves with the filling.
6
Cut the bacon in half.
7
Place a slice of bacon under a jalapeno half. Sprinkle a little cheese on top.
8
Wrap the bacon around the jalapeno and secure it with a toothpick. Repeat the process to all the jalapeno halves.
9
Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the bacon gets crisp.
10
Remove peppers from the oven. Allow to cool slightly before handling.
