They’ve got that perfect balance of heat, richness, and smoky flavor that makes people stop mid-conversation just to say, “Oh wow, these are incredible.” Perfect for anyone who loves a bold game-day treat.

Servings: 8

Ingredients:

• 8 jalapenos sliced and de-seeded
• 8 slices thick cut bacon
• 12 tbsp cream cheese room temp
• 2 cups smoked brisket chopped or shredded

Instructions:

1. Prepare the jalapeños by choosing larger ones if you can.

2. Cut off the tops, then use a sharp paring knife to slice a straight line down the back (usually the flatter side). Gently pull the jalapeño open with your fingers.

3. Use the paring knife to carefully remove the seeds. This is where most of the heat is. For a spicier bite, leave some of the white ribs and just remove the seeds.

4. Rinse the jalapeños under water to clean them and wash away any remaining seeds.

5. Use a knife to spread cream cheese inside each jalapeño, filling about half of the cavity. Make sure there is enough cream cheese to help the brisket stick and stay in place.

6. Fill the rest of each jalapeño with chopped or shredded brisket, pressing it gently into the cream cheese.

7. Lay a slice of thick-cut bacon on a flat surface.

8. Place a stuffed jalapeño at one end of the bacon. Secure the bacon to the jalapeño with a toothpick, wrap the bacon around, and secure the other end with a second toothpick. Repeat with the remaining jalapeños.

9. Once all the jalapeños are wrapped in bacon, choose your cooking method: oven or smoker.

10. For the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Arrange the Texas Twinkies on a baking sheet, ideally on a wire rack set over the pan to catch drips and help the bacon crisp. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and as crisp as you like.
