Dove poppers
Breast the doves, fillet the halves off the breastbone. Soak in very salty water for about 30 minutes, drain, don't rinse. Prepare the Jalapenos by slicing in half long wise, loose the inners and seeds. A smear of cream cheese (or your choice of nearly any cheese), lay a breast half in, wrap with bacon. Instead of pinning the bacon with tooth pics, run a pair of bamboo skewers thru each one just like a shiskabob but using 2 skewers. This will hold the bacon fast and they won't unwrap and fall apart when turning. We cook over mesquite and/or oak, your choice on the flavor. Cook over a pretty hot open fire turning often. When the bacon is done it's time to dig in. Enjoy!
