Porky Peppers

[pepperman]

Always select fresh Jalapeno Peppers without blemishes, bright in color, smooth skin, large in size. Prepare peppers by removing stems, washing in cool water, placing in colander to allow drying. Cut in half, length wise. Use a small apple corer to remove all seeds and veins, creating bowls with the peppers. Grate cheese

Remove from heat and drain. Preheat your Pepper Griddle on the stove (Electric, Gas, or Barbecue grill) to Medium high. Oil the griddle using your choice of oil. Salt peppers, place pork inside peppers and put into preheated griddle for approximately 5 to 7 minutes until peppers have browned.

I'm trying very hard to convince everyone that once you remove the seeds and veins from the peppers, then sear them quickly in a griddle ( of course the griddle that I designed and patented does a much better job ) the peppers are very mild and fruity flavored. No spicier then a medium salsa, in most cases as mild as a bell pepper but with flavor.
You really should try them before making a judgment based on the pickled or raw jalapeno pepper. The jar has given them a bad name.
I do like pickled peppers but they do have their place.

Yes, pickled peppers have their place. Right now in my place. A pic of a little I did the other day. Those little white seeds were left in for reasons I don't really want to think about right now.

CanMan,
I apologize, thought you were being negative about the burn comment. I'm please to know that your a man of great taste, I prepared a hug skillet of potatoes, onions, and smoked jalapeno flavored sausages this past weekend. Needless to say they were a BIG hit.
If you get a chance , try a couple of these griddled jalapeno recipes using your fresh peppers and please leave some of the veins and seeds just to kick'em up a notch.
