Bloody Mary Bacon Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers
Jalapeño poppers are one of the best appetizers you can make. They're spicy, cheesy, salty, crispy, and oh-so-satisfying. Wrap them in smoky bacon and add in bold Bloody Mary flavor, and quite honestly, you have yourself the greatest jalapeño popper of all time.
Ingredients:
- 8 fresh, whole jalapeños
- 1 package of bacon
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup The Real Dill Bloody Mary Mix
- 2 tsp. + 1-2 tbsp The Real Dill Bloody Mary Rimming Spice
Directions:
- Add softened cream cheese, Bloody Mary Mix, and 2 tsp Bloody Mary Rimming Spice to a bowl and stir until well combined.
- Cut each jalapeño in half and remove the seeds and veins. We recommend scraping everything out with a spoon.
- Stuff cream cheese mixture into each jalapeño half. Wrap a piece of bacon around the stuffed jalapeño. Set completed peppers aside on baking sheet or plate.
- Sprinkle remaining 1-2 tbsp Bloody Mary Rimming spice on top of each bacon wrapped jalapeño.
- Cook in an air fryer or oven at 400 degrees F for 20 - 25 minutes or until the bacon is fully cooked through and nice and crispy. For extra smokey flavor, put the jalapeños in a smoker at 200 degrees F for 2.5 - 3 hours, or until the bacon is cooked to your desired crispness.
