Should be blue cheese, not parm, for “Buffalo style”
Good idea to dip into. Kind of cool it off a bit. Nice. Thank you.
I agree
I was kinda thinking the same thing instead of adding parm, do motz cheese and then dip in Blue Cheese or Ranch.
I rescued my banana peppers before a serious freeze this week. This was a great way to use them up for a pot luck. It was fun letting the peppers ripen: it made it a colorful dish.
Also, these microwave well.
We’re glad you able to put this great recipe to use! Thanks for sharing.
I stuff my banana peppers with fresh sausage, onions, shredded Parmesan cheese, tiny amount of basil and mix. Salt and pepper to your liking. Cut a small side off a pepper to make the pepper like a boat. Stuff sausage mix into the pepper boat. Roll in bread crumbs.
These freeze well and make a nice quick dinner or a delightful snack!!!
I just put up 50 peppers!!!
That’s all well and good but this isn’t about your recipe!
Thank you for your added suggestions
I bake for 20 minutes in a 375° oven.
Thank you!!!
Great for Keto diet or just gluten free diets!!!
Going to make a bunch a bunch and freeze them for Thanksgiving appetizers. I’ll wrap some in bacon when I bake them. I have a couple bushel of peppers I’m working on right now. I will also be making jalapeño poppers and freezing.
Does anyone think this would turn out just as good in a skillet or on a grill.
I prefer to stuff the pepper no slice and fill boat like
Can you freeze peppers with the buffalo chicken? I freeze mine with sausage ?
I would use, mozzarella and blue…..but thats just me
Great dish, also I stuff peppers with cream cheese and wrap in bacon.
That’s how I do my poppers , but I’ve been putting them in an electric smoker for about an hour and 20 minutes with peach wood , the bacon wrap cooks perfect in that time
My step mom made these for us on Sunday and there were so awesome! I’m doing a low carb diet so these were perfect she usually makes potato salad when having us for dinner which is a weakness of mine so it was nice she made me something low carb so I didn’t fall off the wagon
They were awesome not there stupid auto correct
Tried it both ways. Big hit!
Amazing!!! Followed the recipe to a tee but put a dry ranch packet in it too…. perfect!! Loved every bite!!
I want to try this on the grill.

I bet these would be amazing smoked and bacon wrapped.
