Appetizer for dinner...

[DBWallis]

A pictorial essay of one man's battle with supper while his wife is out of town:

In case you missed it: those are smoked brisket and cream cheese stuffed, bacon wrapped, grilled jalapeno poppers.

I'm probably going to regret eating 16 of them!

 

[Cliff Bartlett]

Gorgeous David! Impressive eating 16 ABT's. Your wife will be very proud.

 

[ChuckO]

Outstanding ABT's now I have to cook some

 

[Wystan C]

After eating 16, I'm not convinced that ABT is just the name of the dish, it may be describing the near future for you (let's hope not though)...

 

[Craig Alumbaugh]

Those ABT's are looking good

Maybe, but it was totally worth it!

I'd say you won the battle DB! Nice job!

 

[Tony R]

Good idea. I bet they were good.

One-man dinners when the spouse is out of town can be glorious. Terrific looking ABT's…I do see your point about the potentially high "regret factor".

..............…I do see your point about the potentially high "regret factor".

No probs. Put the toilet paper in the fridge for a couple of hours first.

Nice ABT's btw.

 

[JRAiona]

Those look great David.

 

[Enrico Brandizzi]

Im not surprised of empty plate!

Why do I see everyone half shell their jalapenos for turds? I always leave mine whole cut the top off, scape inside, stuff an wrap. That way all the good stuff stays inside. Is there an advantage half shelling that I don't know about?

I use a pair of mini tongs cut in 1/2 to make spoons to clean the inside. The serrated edge are perfect for this. http://amcohouseworks.com/mini-tongs-set-of-2.html

Great job and very interesting, will have to give that a try.

 

[Rich Dahl]

You ate 16 ABTs!?!?!? You are my hero! Id' hate to envision the next day if I did that.

 

[DBWallis]

Following day update: yup, still worth it!

Good lord that looked amazing - it must have been to get cleaned up in 1 sitting!
