Ingredients
3 (8-ounce) blocks cream cheese at room temperature
2 (8-ounce) cans crushed pineapple (with the juice)
2 to 3 tablespoons sriracha
Blackstone Pineapple Sriracha seasoning blend (or use a similar/ sweet & spicy seasoning blend)
20 large to medium jalapeno peppers cut in half lengthwise and seeds scraped out with a spoon
40 slices regular cut bacon
Instructions
Put the cream cheese, pineapple, sriracha, and Blackstone Pineapple Sriracha seasoning or sweet & spicy seasoning blend in a bowl. Stir until combined, which does take a few minutes, and I used the back of a kitchen spoon to mash it together at first.
Add some filling to fill each jalapeno half. Wrap each with a slice of bacon, overlapping the bacon slightly. Sprinkle more Pineapple Sriracha seasoning blend over top of the bacon once they are all wrapped.
Set you smoker or pellet grill to 250 degrees. Place the jalapenos, filled side up, and cook for 2 hours or until the bacon is cooked to your liking.
