Atomic Buffalo Turds

     I must preface this post with the fact that I did not name this appetizer. However, I have found that it is great fun to announce a serving of these cute little fellows. The recipe is a slight variation of an older standard that used cooked chicken slivers, but using little smoked sausages eliminates a rather lengthy step in preparation. Jalapeno peppers are halved and seeded, given a dollop of cayenne-seasoned cream cheese and topped with a sausage.


Each is then wrapped in bacon, which is secured with a toothpick.


Brown sugar is sprinkled over before baking, which adds a delicious touch of sweetness (so no dipping sauce is necessary).  When the bacon became crispy and brown, the turds were done and ready to serve. Be warned that these appetizers are not for pepper-challenged palates!
