Pork Roll and Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos

We're pretty fond of Pork Roll here in Philadelphia, have you tried it? It's a pork product (imagine that), a little spicy, a little tangy, a tad salty, and would probably be classified as sliced firm sausage. And it's just great when you brown it up real good-yea, border line burnt! Since I knew I'd be baking these and for the sake of pictures... I didn't brown the meat as much as I would for breakfast but they are very tasty!
Some folks like mustard, some ketchup and some both. I say it's all good:@)
If you can find a "tangy" Pork Roll I do suggest trying it, that's my favorite!

Pork Roll and Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos
No real measurements here folks, about half meat/half cheese:
Jalapenos, sliced in half and cleaned
Pork Roll, lightly browned in a skillet, diced to about 1/4"
American cheese, diced to about 1/4"-get yourself some good stuff sliced from the deli
Panko breadcrumbs for topping, just a light sprinkling
Ketchup and mustard for dipping
  1. Stuff the peppers, sprinkle with Panko and bake at 375 for 18 minutes.
  2. Remove from oven and turn broiler on, when hot place under broiler until the cheese browns up.
  3. Let cool a bit to firm the cheese back up and serve.
Have a happy day:@)

  4. I have never heard of pork roll, perhaps it is called something else on the west coast, I'll check. Another thing I've noticed, your Jalapenos seems to be so much larger than the ones here...Oh well, that just means being able to eat more if they are smaller, right? haha! xo

  8. Feeling like a dork because I've never heard of pork roll.
    This looks delish, though. Yet again, I'm committing to a harvest of jalapenos next year!

  10. Learned something new today - pork rolls, it's funny how certain areas of the country have different types of foods that everyone in that area knows about but that seem quite foreign to others. I grew up in a very German community and I was shocked when I grew up and found out that other people had no clue about the yummy German treats that I grew up with! Love you jalapeño rolls, how fun!

  11. These looks good, Lynn!! YUM!

    P.s. I thought I had word verification turned off on my blog. I'm sorry that did that. I fixed it (I hope for good this time).

  17. Gosh, I never heard of pork rolls, but I wish I could try it. Your jalapeño peppers look mighty tasty stuffed with that yumminess. Maybe Earl could fly some pork roll down to me in Texas! Im thinking sausage would be a good substitute??

  20. My husband is a big fan of pork roll, being a New Jersey native. I call it New Jersey spam, because that's what it looks like to me. What an interesting use for it, filling jalapenos. Thanks for this, I'm sure the mister will love it!
