A friend sent me this picture, a nativity made entirely of pork on a bed of sauerkraut.

ATOMIC BUFFALO TURDS
12 fresh jalapeno peppers
12 slices of bacon
24 little smokies
1 package of cream cheese (room temperature)
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne pepper
Sweet barbecue rub
Fischer & Weiser raspberry chipotle sauce
To start the construction of the atomic buffalo turds, youfll first want to wash and trim the jalapeno peppers. I highly recommend wearing plastic food prep gloves during the trimming portion to keep the jalapeno juices from soaking into your skin, so proceed with caution if you choose not to heed my advice. Trimming these guys is a relatively simple task. Simply chop the stem off and slice the pepper lengthwise to expose the seeds and vein. Using a spoon, scrape out the white vein and rinse under water to wash away the seeds. The cream cheese will ultimately counteract the burn from the peppers, so leave a good amount of the inner membrane in tact if you want to feel the heat.In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, paprika and cayenne pepper. Using a butter knife, or a pastry bag, fill each jalapeno half with a generous portion of the cream cheese mixture.Top each one of the jalapeno gboatsh with a little smokey.Wrap each of the smokey topped jalapenos with a half slice of bacon, making sure that the seam is directly on top of the little smokey. Secure the wrap by inserting a toothpick straight down through the overlapping edges of the bacon all the way through the little smokey. Stop just short of going through the pepper though, that way the cream cheese doesnft leak out through the hole.Since bacon already contains a good amount of sodium, youfll want to season the buffalo turds with a sugar based rub. If youfre the do-it-yourself type, a nice blend of brown sugar and cayenne pepper works great on these bad boys as well.Cooking the buffalo turds is a matter of getting the bacon done to your liking. My preference is smoke at 250 degrees for about an hour and a half. At this point the bacon isnft overly crispy, but itfs definitely cooked enough to be bite through. If you prefer a crispier bacon, then Ifd suggest kicking the temperature up to 300 degrees for about an hour. Youfll want to keep a close eye on the peppers though. If they overcook, then theyfll loose their stability and your turds will spill out all over your smoker.Once your buffalo turds are cooked to your liking, remove them from the grill to cool down a bit before serving. At this point I would typically top them with some warmed up Fischer & Wieser raspberry chipotle sauce- available at Walmart. The flavor of the smokey jalapeno matches perfectly with the sweet fruity sauce, and of course itfs heat is in good company with the medley of peppers tasted in each bite. A spoonful of sauce on each turd and you can guarantee these tasty treats will disappear in no time flat!

Love bacon? Try crispy fried salami! (It's actually baked, not fried. If you believe the potato chip hype, that makes it much healthier!)
Ingredients
30 slices of genoa-dry Italian salami
Directions
1.Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2.Line a large baking sheet with foil and arrange the salami in a single layer on top.
3.Bake for 20 minutes, until the salami is crispy and chip-like.
4.Carefully transfer to paper towels and blot to remove the fat. Let cool.
5.Enjoy alone, with cheese, or in a sandwich or burger!

Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies "baked" on the camp stove griddle in El Golfo Mexico. Pretty tasty!
