Jalapeno Bacon Poppers

Cream cheese-stuffed jalapenos wrapped in bacon and cooked until the peppers are tender and the bacon is shatteringly crisp. These are dangerously moreish - make more than you think you need, because they will disappear faster than you can cook them. The pizza oven gives the bacon a smoky char that you simply cannot replicate indoors.

Ingredients

• 10 jalapeno peppers
• 250g cream cheese
• 10 slices smoked streaky bacon
• BBQ rub of your choice

Method

1. Slice each jalapeno in half lengthways and scrape out the seeds with a teaspoon. Discard the seeds (or keep some if you like more heat).
2. Fill each jalapeno half generously with cream cheese, mounding it slightly above the rim.
3. Cut each bacon rasher in half widthways. Wrap one piece tightly around the middle of each stuffed jalapeno, tucking the end underneath to stop it unravelling.
4. Sprinkle a little BBQ rub over each popper.
5. Place on a baking tray and cook in your pizza oven over medium indirect heat for about 20 minutes, until the peppers are tender and the bacon is crispy all over.
