With a name like that how could I not try it? Got all the parts and when the rain stops I will crank up the smoker. Copied and forwarded this to my son who is growing his own jalapenos his season.

Don't know who named them that ut the name was in the cookbook along with the receipe. They are a hit every time we take them to a party. Not for those with ulcers however, and don't let your dog eat them or you will have a lot of clean up to do.
