Bacon wrapped Cream Cheese Peppers

One of my absolute favorite game day Traeger appetizers! 40 jalapeno peppers 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature 1 cup grated Cheddar, pepper Jack cheese, or mozzarella 1-1/2 teaspoons Traeger Pork and Poultry Rub (or your favorite spice blend) 2 tablespoons sour cream 20 slices smoked bacon, cut in half Cut the stem ends off of Jalapeño and scrape the seeds and ribs out of each pepper (USE GLOVES). In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, grated cheese, Traeger Pork and Poultry Rub, and the sour cream. Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag and trim 1/2-inch off one of the lower corners with a scissors. Squeeze the cream cheese mixture into each pepper. Wrap the outside of each with a piece of bacon, securing with 1 or 2 toothpicks. Arrange the peppers on a foil-lined baking sheet. Smoke the peppers for 1 hour. Increase the heat to 350 and continue to cook for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the bacon begins to render its fat and crisp. #superbowl #superbowlparty #appetizer #food #yum #snack #gameday…
