Reaper Armadillo Eggs

Reaper Armadillo Eggs

INGREDIENTS

  • 1lb ground beef(you can use ground sausage too)
  • 2 medium size Jalapenos
  • 8oz cream cheese
  • 8oz shredded cheddar cheese
  • Thin sliced bacon
  • Blazing Star Reaper Rub

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Add 8oz softened cream cheese to a bowl
  2. Add 8oz shredded cheddar cheese to the bowl
  3. Add 1 tablespoon Blazing Star Reaper to the bowl
  4. Mix thoroughly with a fork or your hands and set mixture to the side
  5. Cut Jalapenos in half and remove core and seeds
  6. This step is added because I think it is better. Cook Jalapenos on the grill for about 10 minutes just to soften them up. When they are cooked raw inside of meat I think they are too hard.
  7. Stuff each side of Jalapenos with cream cheese mixture and put two sides together. 
  8. Take about 1/2lb of ground beef and form an egg shape around stuffed jalapenos making sure it is even around all sides
  9. Season all sides of the egg with Blazing Star Reaper rub
  10. Layout 4 slices of thinly sliced bacon side by side
  11. Place Egg on slices of bacon on one side
  12. Take one slice of bacon and wrap across top of egg long ways making sure to tuck under both ends
  13. Grab the ends of the 4 slices of bacon and roll egg evenly until bacon is wrapped completely around egg.
  14. Season bacon wrapped egg with Blazing Star Reaper Rub
  15. Cook on indirect heat on charcoal grill or on a pellet grill at 300 degrees for about 30 minutes.
  16. Once the bacon looks to be close to done on the outside and the internal temperature of the beef is around 135, brush on some Blazing Star Spicy BBQ Sauce
  17. Cook for another 5 minutes and remove from grill
  18. Allow to rest and cool for about 10 minutes before slicing opening
