Lone Star Grillz “Jalapeno Popper Dip"

Remember to always wash your hands prior to preparing. Use food grade gloves where appropriate to prevent contamination. 

Recipe and Ingredients: 

  • 8 large Jalapenos (8 peppers will make it SPICY, so use less for less heat)

  • 8 oz. Cream Cheese

  • 4 oz. Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

  • 4 oz. Shredded Cheddar Cheese

  • 10 oz. canned Tomatoes w/Chili’s

  • 8 Slices of medium thickness Bacon

  • ½ cup Sour Cream

  • 1 Tbsp. Minced Garlic

  • A few shakes of Lone Star Grills “Texas Bold” Rub

DIRECTIONS:

ALWAYS START BY WASHING YOUR HANDS PRIOR TO PREPARING ANY FOOD FOR FOOD SAFETY.

  1. Set up your El Patron for indirect cooking with the heat deflector plates in place, then Pre-heat to 250-275 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. On a baking tray w/warming rack, place slices of Bacon and Olive Oil coated Jalapenos.

  3. Place in El Patron for approximately 60-75 minutes until the bacon is cooked and the peppers are roasted nicely (you may place the Bacon directly onto the grates to make it crispier for a few minutes if you like).

  4. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then chop the bacon and peppers up for the dip.

  5. In a large bowl for mixing, place the chopped bacon, peppers (reserve a small amount of bacon for topping), and ALL other ingredients, mix well to combine.

  6. Transfer into a 10” cast-iron skillet or any baking dish of your choice that is grill safe.

  7. Top with remaining bacon and place back onto the grill for around 45-60 minutes until fully hot and edges are bubbling.

  8. Remove, cool for a few minutes, SERVE AND ENJOY! (chips, bread, crackers are perfect for dipping!)
