Instructions
- To make the pimento cheese, first shred the block of cheddar by hand. Pre-shredded cheese has a coating to keep cheese from clumping together that negatively affects the texture of the pimento cheese filling.
- Add shredded cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, drained jar of pimentos, mayonnaise, salt and pepper, and milk or cream to a food processor to combine and smooth ingredients.
- Cut the tops off jalapeño peppers.
- Use a jalapeño corer tool or paring knife to remove seeds and veins from the inside of the jalapeño peppers. Make sure you wear food preparation gloves and avoid touching your face.
- Use a pastry bag to easily add pimento cheese mixture to the inside of the jalapeño peppers. Place the peppers in the BBQ-Aid Jalapeño Popper Rack.
- Heat grill or smoker to 350° F. Place the BBQ-Aid Jalapeño Popper Rack on the grill and cook for 20-30 minutes, until cheese begins to brown and jalapeño peppers begin to look roasted.
