Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 30 minutes

Servings: 2 dozen peppers

Ingredients

2 dozen micro sweet peppers
1 lb Saz’s Pulled Pork
8 oz Saz’s BBQ Original Sauce
24 uncooked bacon slices

Vegetable Cheese Cream Mix

3 oz diced red onion
2 oz thinly sliced green onion
8 oz diced roasted red bell pepper
1 diced jalapeño
4 floz heavy cream
2 oz brown sugar
2 tsp minced garlic
.5 oz (2-3 sprigs diced fine) fresh basil
3 oz shredded cheddar
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 425℉.
Wash micro peppers and slice lengthwise, de-stem, and de-seed. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, add red onion, green onion, roasted red bell pepper, jalapeño, heavy cream, brown sugar, garlic, basil and cheddar cheese. Mix together and allow to sit for 5 minutes to macerate.
In a separate bowl, mix together Saz’s Pulled Pork and Saz’s BBQ Original Sauce.
Combine vegetable cheese cream mix and pulled pork mix.
With a gloved hand, stuff the half-pepper shells with 1 -1.25 oz of pork mix (this all depends on the size of the pepper.)
Lay down a strip of bacon on a sheet pan, and wrap the bacon around the stuffed pepper tightly.
Put into oven and roast for 15-17 minutes at 425℉ until bacon is crispy.
Once removed from oven, brush lightly with Saz’s BBQ Original Sauce.
Allow to cool and enjoy!
