- 2 1/2- 3 cups powdered sugar
DIRECTIONS

We have had a crazy couple of weeks around here so I have some super simple recipes coming up for you this week. I was doing a lot of baking last week and looked in the fridge for a little something for the boys around here and saw kielbasa and Bacon and a trusty bottle of BBQ sauce. I knew exactly what I was going to do. You guessed it, this amazing little gem was born! I air fried them, but they could easily be baked or even grilled in the summer!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 fully cooked kielbasa ring
- 4-5 slices of thick cut bacon
- 1/2 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce
DIRECTIONS
Cut the kielbasa link the same size as the width of the bacon. My kielbasa gave me 8-9 pieces. Cut the bacon slices large enough to wrap around the kielbasa pieces and secure the bacon with a toothpick. Do this for each of the kielbasa pieces. Slather the BBQ sauce all over the kielbasa, bacon pieces, and place in your air fryer.
Air fry at 400 degrees for 12-14 minutes or until the bacon is done until your deisired crispness. Let cool for just a couple minutes, remove the toothpicks and serve warm.

We absolutely LOVE jalapeño poppers. I make them often and we also order them when we are out. I usually stuff them with spicy sausage but decided to change it up a bit with some seasoning in the cream cheese mixture and the addition of the sweet barbecue sauce. I used my air fryer but you can easily bake these as well. This was the perfect sweet and spicy combination, these just might be my all-time favorite jalapeño poppers. We loved them so much I made them two days in a row with none left over!
INGREDIENTS
- 8 jalapeño’s
- 4 ounces of cream cheese at room temperature
- 1/2 cup sharpe cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 8 slices thick cut bacon
- 1/2 cup of honey BBQ sauce
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees. Slice each jalapeño in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and veins. Set aside. In a small bowl combine the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder and mix well. Spread the cream cheese mixture into the body of each jalapeño half. Cut the bacon slices in half and taking one piece of bacon at a time wrap the half piece of bacon around one of the stuffed jalapeños and secure each end with a toothpick. Do this for each jalapeño half.
In another small bowl combine the barbecue sauce and brown sugar. Brush each of the bacon wrapped jalapeños with the barbecue mixture. Place the jalapeños in your fryer in a single layer and air fry at 400 degrees for 12-14 minutes depending on how crispy you want your bacon. Remove from fryer and let cool for just a couple minutes. Serve warm.
