Just when you thought this thread had gone away.....
Here is a nice little recipe for a good spicy appetizer.
we make these a lot in the summer time and they are fantastic!
Grilled Pepperoncini's with cheese and Bacon.
all you need is a nice big jar of some good pepperoncini's, a can of easy cheese, some uncooked bacon, and barbecue sauce.
Take the pepperoncini's out of the container and let them sit on some paper towels to let them dry out a bit. if any seem to have excess juices inside try and squeeze it out.
once they are ready, take your can of easy cheese and carefully poke a little hole in the end of the pepper. Then squirt some easy cheese inside. Don't blow it up like a balloon, but give it a decent amount. Try and keep the hole as small as posible. Do this to all of the peppers.
Now take your bacon and start wrapping the pepperoncini's. Usually one slice of bacon cut in half is enough for one pepper. Wrap them all in the bacon. it helps to poke a tooth pick thru each one to keep the bacon wrapped up nice.
Once you have all the peppers ready to go, dip each one in your favorite BBQ sauce.
Now they are ready for the grill. Basically just heat your grill to about medium heat, on the lower side is better. If you're using a gas grill, just keep an eye on them so that they don't burn. basically just cook them until the bacon starts getting crisp. towards the end, I like to brush them again with some more sauce. then they are good too go.
also, don't be alarmed when they are cooking if you see some cheese leaking out. This is quite normal, and pretty much unavoidable.
Carefull eating them right away, hot cheese = ruined day when you scorch the back of your throat.
Enjoy my BOTL's....this is a recipe I don't share that often.
