Hank Shaws recipe is amazing. A bit more work than the average popper but done over charcoal they're addicting. They are my favorite wild game food. Instead of cream cheese he uses roasted garlic and it's a game changer. We made about 120 poppers at the club and they were killed by about 20 guys and girls with the final few being settled with a coin toss. Don't cut corners, use his recipe and you will not be sorry.
