Ingredients
Scale
- 10 thin boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 pound hot Italian sausage
- 6 ounces cream cheese
- 1 ½ cups sharp cheddar cheese
- 10 jalapeños
- 36 ounces of bacon (3 packs)
- BBQ sauce for brushing
Instructions
- Preheat your smoker to 250°F.
- In a mixing bowl, blend together the sausage, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions until smooth.
- Prepare the jalapeños by cutting off the ends and slicing them lengthwise; remove seeds if desired for less heat. Stuff each half with the sausage mixture.
- On a parchment-lined baking sheet, season each chicken breast with seasoning and black pepper. Place one stuffed jalapeño on top of each breast and roll tightly, securing with strips of bacon using toothpicks.
- Smoke the bombs on grill grates for about 4 hours or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F, brushing with BBQ sauce in the last 20-30 minutes.
