How to cook deliciously - Spicier, Cheesier Stuffed Jalapenos Wrapped in Bacon

1 . Stage

Slice caps off the jalapeno peppers; reserve. Core and seed the peppers.

2 . Stage

Cut pepper Jack cheese into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Cut each slice into sticks the thickness of a pencil. Stuff jalapeno peppers with as many cheese sticks as will fit. Secure caps back on the jalapenos, using at least 2 toothpicks per pepper.

3 . Stage

Wrap 1 slice bacon around each jalapeno pepper. Keep bacon secure by skewering the end on one of the toothpicks.

4 . Stage

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill jalapeno peppers, watching for flare-ups, until bacon is browned, about 20 minutes.
