Traeger Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos
I had my friends over for a fun Mexican themed food day by the pool, the appetizer I served were these Traeger Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos!
What an awesome game day recipe for the Traeger pellet grill also 🙂
Anything with poblano peppers I am a sucker for, but paired with chorizo you have my whole heart 😉
How to make Traeger Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos
First slice a few poblano peppers in half.
And scrape out the seeds and white parts.
Poblanos are a very mild pepper, so no worries if you leave a few seeds.
Then set a large skillet over medium heat to cook the ground chorizo.
Break it apart in the skillet as it cooks.
Be sure to drain the excess grease when it’s done cooking.
Combine the chorizo in a bowl with a block of cream cheese, a can of corn, some shredded cheese, and cilantro.
It helps when mixing if the cream cheese is at room temperature.
I seasoned with a little kosher salt and pepper as well.
Then get to stuffing those peppers with allllll that yummy filling!
Next stop is the Traeger pellet grill set to 350 degrees.
Place them right on the grill grates for 30 to 40 minutes.
Traeger Chorizo Stuffed Poblanos were super tasty and the leftovers were even better the next day!
They got rave reviews at our girl’s pool day!
