Cooking instructions:1. Prepare the jalapeños by cutting off their tops and carefully removing the seeds and membranes, leaving only the inner pepper halves.2. In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese, and combine with the diced bacon.3. Fill the pepper halves with the cheese and bacon mixture.4. Fry the bacon in a skillet until it becomes crispy, then glaze with BBQ sauce.5. Bake or grill the poppers (lying across the grates to prevent flare-ups). For baking, place them on a foil-lined baking sheet, and bake at 425°F for 10 to 15 minutes, until the cheese becomes bubbly, and the jalapeños soften.6.
