Yes. There is a place in Chattanooga, TN called Sugar’s. Really, really good BBQ. Awesome poppers. Grilled, Jack cheese, a bit of BBQ sauce. You can add protein if you like. Done right they can be great. Chain or frozen grocery store stuff generally no.

Breaded poppers-trash.

Served open-faced, if you will, are very nice when paired with cheesy potato skins. One thing I've noticed from the grocery store deli section ones we buy from time to time is that the jalapeños can vary greatly in heat in a single package. Always bite small. Usually do the skins/poppers together with a little ranch and BBQ b/c I roll like that.

8/10.

+1. The breading typically sucks. Open face it and wrap in bacon.

I'm not big on the bacon wrapped ones as they always seem to be under in the middle and the bacon is roached. I usually make crispy bacon and mix with cream cheese, stuff that and some seasonings, toothpick the raw jalapeno shut and just grill it. Crispy skin jalapenos filled with bacon cream cheese goodness.

For grilling I start it slit side down when the internals are coldest and least likely to escape, then the sides and finish it on the back. Sexy.

I make a stuffed anaheim or large jalepeno chilie renello with chicken/cheese stuffing, bread crumbs on the open side, saute, then a chipotle bbq sauce. It's decent.

Ranch is for fat gingers.
