Jalapeno Pepper Rack with Bonus Corer (2-pc.) by Steven Raichlen

I used this for the first time last week and it worked great. Was a big hit for a weekend BBQ. However, I found that it works best to stagger the peppers especially if you are wrapping them in bacon as the bacon does not brown if they are overcrowded. I actually cooked them on low in the broiler as there was no room on the BBQ. They take about 30-45 minutes in the broiler on low. I tried cooking them on high and the tops got burnt. I recommend buying two as they must be served hot and one may not hold enough peppers when staggered. My only complaint is that the holes in the rack are placed too close together to cook properly. Further, be sure that the peppers you purchase are medium in size. If they're to small, they fall through the bottom unless you use toothpicks. If they are too fat at the bottom, they don't fit in the rack and fall over.

comes with a coring knives. usually i stay away from specialty tools you don't need, but it's really nice to have the curved coring knife this one comes with. only draw back is that the holes are so big, it can be a challenge to make sure all your peppers are big enough.

I love jalapeno poppers and when I saw this for sale on cooking.com I just knew I had to try it out.

For the most part it works as it should, the one problem I had involved the peppers shrinking in size and falling through the holes once cooked. This caused quite a mess as the cheese melted to the pan which required extensive soaking and then scrubbing to get it clean.

If you make stuffed Jalapeno's, you NEED one of these! It even comes with a CORER that gets all of the ribs and seeds out so you won't get the juice on your fingers! The peppers stand up and are super easy to stuff with your "special" recipe - it also comes with a recipe! The rack has handles on each end that make it easy to pick up off of the grill or out of the oven. You will really enjoy the corer. I already have two "tough", "manly" family members that have requested one of these for Christmas! ENJOY!!!

It is easy to fill the peppers after placing them in the rack. Clean up was easy. I love the tool for removing the stem and seeds. It made the job much faster.
