    My Buffalo Shrimp Jalapeño Poppers are an upgraded version of the classic jalapeño poppers recipe. Shrimp seasoned with buffalo spice, stuffed with brie, and then wrapped in bacon.

    There's a reason that these shrimp jalapeno poppers are one of my most requested recipes. I mean seriously what's not to love here?

    I was inspired to make this Super Bowl appetizer when I was down in San Diego visiting family.

    My sister-in-law was telling me a story about these jalapeño poppers her friend made and how spicy they were. At the exact same time, I was watching Ree Drummond make brie stuffed mushrooms for her Super Bowl party line-up.

    Then... bam! Buffalo Shrimp and brie found their way into a jalapeño and got wrapped in bacon for the win!

    This is how my brain works folks! 85% of the time, I'm thinking about food and how to cook it!

    What You'll Need

    • Shrimp
    • Bacon
    • Brie Cheese
    • Buffalo Seasoning - Check out our house blend.
    • Jalapeños

    Step-By-Step Instructions

    Step 1 – Slice the jalapeños in half

    fresh jalapenos

    Step 2 — Season the buffalo shrimp

    Clean and season the shrimp with a buffalo seasoning blend. I use a homemade buffalo seasoning that is fantastic on everything from this shrimp to chicken.

    Step 3 — Stuff the jalapeños

    Each jalapeño is stuffed with a chunk of creamy brie cheese, and a buffalo spiced shrimp.

    Step 4 — Wrap with Bacon

    Wrap the stuffed jalapeno poppers with thick bacon and secure it with a toothpick, if needed.

    Step 5 — Bake the bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers

    Instructions
     

    • Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or foil.
    • Preheat the oven to 425℉
    • Rinse the shrimp with cold water and pat dry with a paper towel or a clean kitchen towel.
    • Cut all of the jalapeños in half and seed them. It's a good idea to use gloves for this step.
    • Slice the brie into 24 pieces, they don't have to be exactly the same size, but close.
    • Toss the shrimp with the buffalo seasoning.
    • Start to assemble: Add a piece of brie and one shrimp to each jalapeño, then wrap with a slice of bacon. Secure with a toothpick.
    • Place the bacon-wrapped poppers on to your baking sheet. Make sure that they have plenty of space. This makes sure that they get crispy while baking.
    • Bake for about 20 minutes. Oven temperatures vary, so make sure that you watch them. I usually rotate the pan halfway through the cooking time.
