These were awesome. I've never made anything like this before, and I was very pleased with the taste. For some reason they broke open in the oven, but they were still incredible. Thanks so much for the recipe. I will be making them again. Deb (Newfie Wanna Be)

A friend and I made these yesterday to take to a cook out. I didnt get to eat any but the smell was heavenly. The guys ate most of them while smoking the ribs and ham and brisket. They even sent the kids sneaking into the kitchen to snatch these eggs. We had 1 lb of peppers(fresh) that we seeded out and we had to use an extra packet of the pork seasoning. I think the peppers were bigger than usual. We also used 2 lbs of breakfast sausage. Very yummy I will be making these for our Thanksgiving Dinner at my moms.

These are great! I am a Texan and this is a Texas dish, fantastic! I made them exactly as stated except I didn't slice them lengthwise, I got Trappy's jarred HOT jalapenos and picked 2 jars with the biggest peppers, I sliced off the stem end and used a paring knife to cut and dig out the seeds, then I was able to suff the cheese into the pepper useing my little finger, I was able to pack them full and tight, (see my picture). The only thing I might change would be useing fine breadcrumbs and season them myself, the shake and bake is a little salty for my taste. Great recipe, a definate keeper! Just be sure to pull them out of the oven when cheese starts oozing out or you might loose a lot of cheese.
