I do ABTs about once or twice a month, regardless, but after this thread, I had to make some. I did them a little different. Just me & 1 daughter, so only needed 16

That IS my number, cause a # of bacon has 16 slices(+/-).....Anyway, I like the peppers cooked, not crispy. They DO lose some bite, but the flavor is great. So....I cut/split and cleaned them, then I broiled them till they were actually done too much for what I wanted, but.....I then squeezed my cream cheese/paprika/cayane and lil smokey and wrapped with a pc of bacon...by doing the pepper first, I also cut down on my cook time

and they were great....I usually have to overcook the bacon till the pepper is done, so maybe this will help some others.....ps, daughter went out, so I had ALL 16

....yep, I'll pay for it tomorrow
