Search for abt's here (jalapeno cut in half lenghtwise, scoop out seeds and veins, add a little smoky or whatever you want, top with cream cheese/shredded cheese mix, and wrap with bacon). You will find lots of variations. It could be a little time consuming for that many but don't be afraid to fix them up ahead of time and freeze on a cookie sheet, then put in a ziplock bag. Thrown them on the grill frozen, it will be fine.
There was a post not long ago about bacon wrapped shrimp that looked great also. |

| I've done it where when you slice the back of the shrimp to remove the vein replacing it with a sliver of jalapeno and wrapping in semi-cooked bacon and dusted with some rub.. pretty good. |

Not hot, but very flavorful and still crunch when the shrimp is done. You really need to use par-cooked bacon, though, to make sure it gets done.
Moink balls are always a hit, too. I am planning an assortment of bacon-laden goodies for a family party next month - I'll post 'em up when I do the trial runs. _________________ Visit my cooking blog. |

| You can use shrimp in the ABT's. I did this for a party recently where the main dish was grilled shrimp. You can use the little ones and put them in with the cream chesse mixture or use medium/large ones and leave the tail sticking out the top of the ABT as kind of a handle. |

the buffalo turds are a must.
How about some smoked crab stuffed mushrooms?
mini pork kabobs, thats 3 inches of flavor, pork pineapple bell pepper onion.
smoked wings go over well also.
