Atomic Buffalo Turds
Atomic Buffalo Turds (ABTs) are the ultimate BBQ crowd-pleaser. Fresh jalapeños are stuffed with spicy cream cheese, topped with a little smokie, wrapped in bacon, and slow-smoked until perfectly tender and full of flavor. Sweet, smoky, spicy, and creamy all in one addictive bite—these are the first thing to disappear at any cookout or tailgate!

Notes
• Thin bacon works best—it crisps up without overpowering the filling.
• Adjust the cayenne in the cream cheese to match your heat level.
• These can be made ahead and smoked just before serving.
