Ingredients

  • 6-8 Jalapeños
  • 6-8 Cocktail Wieners
  • 1 block Cream Cheese
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese shredded
  • ¼ cup Cowboy Candy Rub
  • 2 Packages of Crescent Rolls
  • Honey Butter for serving

Instructions

  • Begin by mixing together the cream cheese and cheddar cheese in one bowl.
  • Slice the jalapeno in half lengthwise. Using gloves or a utensil, scoop out all the filling and seeds from the inside of the jalapeno.
  • Once cleaned, stuff the pepper full of the cream cheese mixture topping with a cocktail weiner.
  • Next, take 1 slice of crescent roll dough and carefully wrap it around the whole jalapeno making sure to fully encase it.
  • Season the outside with your favorite BBQ seasoning and set to the side. Repeat this for all the other jalapenos until completed.
  • Preheat your smoker/grill to indirect heat at 375F. Add some wood chips or wood chunks to the smoker for added smoke flavor.
  • Add your jalapeno poppers to the smoker and let cook for about 20-25 minutes until golden crispy brown.
  • Pull off and serve with honey butter for dipping and enjoy!
