Atomic buffalo turds

bigben · January 24, 2010, 02:27:23 PM

oh yeah these things have got to be one of the best creations in the smoking world. OMG

yeah I said it atomic buffalo turds. here is the recipe.

10-15 jalapenos.
8oz block of cream cheese
shreaded cheese of your choosing
tbls of roasted garlic
tpls of your favorite meat rub.
bacon
1pkg of lil smokies

your gonna need a smoker or a way to cook for a few hours. toothpicks and that should be it.

Take your jalapenos and split into boats with a knife.

take all the seeds out and scrape the white vein out. the more you leave the hotter it will be. I scrapped all mine out.

Take your cream cheese a cup of the shreaded cheese and mix together. also mix in the rub and the garlic.

some recomend putting the concoction in a baggie and squeezing it out into the jalapenos. I ended up using a butter knife and spreading it into the boats I created.

place a lil smokie in the center and wrap with bacon. I used cheap bacon which was a mistake. good pepper bacon would be good on this.

hold bacon in place with toothpicks.

get your smoker fired up and keep the temp around 225-250. place ABT's in smoker and smoke for 2-2.5 hours or until bacon is done. my bacon was done in one hour but I smoked mine for 2.5 hours just because I could. I placed the ABT's on a cookie trey and took them to my grandparents to let them try. lets just say this is something you can really change up.

next time I am adding a extra tbls of garlic into the mix and then instead of lil smokies I am using peperoni. try it they are awesome

Yes indeed, they're good. We make something quite similar here in Texas..... but we call them Armadillo eggs!

Can you substitute the cream cheese with Silvadene?

WTH is silvadene?

FOsteology · January 25, 2010, 08:59:42 AM

It's a topical cream used for burns..... guess Jim was making a funny as jalapenos to some folks are "hot".

That might help when the jalapenos got to the "exit" mode.

Most likley you could but I am sure the flavor would suffer greatly.

three days later these things weren't hot going in or coming out. just mite t tasty.

I love eating jalapenos, but they sure tare up my south side port

thinking on this the next time I make these it will be with crab meat and old bay. dang that just sounds good. the stuffing that you can put in these things are endless.

in the summer time when were down at the creek we normally get the jar of sliced jalapenos out and take a slice of cheese and a cracker and eat the whole thing. good scooby snacks for the creek. but I agree with ya the coming out does get bad at times. the ABT's aren't bad because you scrape the hot stuff out the white vein and the seeds.

Jalapeno is for wussies, habenaro's are for real men.

bigben · January 27, 2010, 06:27:31 PM

IDK john. habeneros are pretty friggin hot. I know when I went to new mexico everything was hot. even if you thought what you ordered wasn't I think it is a southwest thing. I wonder what a habenero would taste like with this.

you know what I think I will stick with jalapenoes. I'll tell ya right now they are as hot as I can go.
