Method

  1. Soak your toothpicks in warm water for 30 minutes. (This will prevent burning.)

  2. Preheat your oven to 750 °F (400 °C). Use the infrared thermometer to quickly and accurately check the temperature of the middle of the stone.

  3. Slice your jalapeños lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and cut off the stems.

  4. With a spoon, fill each jalapeño half with ½ ounce (15 grams) of cream cheese. Evenly distribute and sprinkle on the shredded gouda over the jalapeños.

  5. Wrap each jalapeño half with a slice of bacon, then stick a toothpick in the middle to keep the popper together.

  6. Place your poppers on the dual-sided grizzler plate. Place it in the oven and cook for 8 to 12 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the cheese oozes out. 

    Tip: Halfway through cooking and with your gloves on, rotate the skillet to ensure an even bake. If necessary, turn the flame to low to prevent burning.
