Thanks. Was having trouble getting my batter to stay on the poppers. Ended up using your method then deep fried them to absolute perfection. Oh I did half with cream cheese the other half with cheddar. Yummy!
Thanks for this. I've been having problems getting the my batter to stick, but I think I need to make it thicker. Also, I freeze them before cooking, I deep fry them, and call them "dragon's eggs" instead of poppers. I have some frozen now that I am going to experiment on with a new batter. (Can't afford to waste any beer though!)
@jubchuqun I hear you! Don't waste any beer! Haha. Freezing is a great idea and helps keep the integrity of the batter. You can always use less beer or other liquid to thicken up the batter. Egg yolks work as well to help it stick. Let me know how your experiments play out. Good luck!
Add 1-2 tablespoon of instant potatos to your batter, let sit for 10 mins and it will thicken up from the flakes absorbing the liquid like it does when making mashed potatos. Except instant sux for mashed potatos imho. Also if you dip the pepper in really well beaten egg white then into flour, then into your batter it doesn't slide off. I also dip into bread crumbs after and deep fry when oil is 350 degrees. You will have an aweso me popper that is like resturant style.
Another thing you can use to core out the peppers and they are very cheap.... A table "crumb scrapers" that waiters use. you can pick them up all over the net for around a buck.. They work better than anything!
Hey, Rdog. You can thicken the batter with extra flour if it doesn't come out thick enough. You can also set the dipped jalapenos in the freezer about 10 minutes or more before baking them. That will help the batter stick as well. I hope that helps.
Jalapeno fan too along with habs. Is there any meal that can't benefit from hot peppers...ahhh maybe oatmeal. lol Left comment for someone else to use instant potatos to thicken and you get great thickening with it just becoming a paste. I use about 1-2 tablespoon depending how much batter, 1 tablespoon to 1/2 cup flour let sit for 10 mins for the flakes to absorb the liquid so it should be way kind of like thin pancake batter to start and then thickens few mins later.
gonna go cook this one now...thanks for the recipe...found it on madness site....gotta call ya out tho (= heat is in the white stuff not the seeds woohoo....peace dude...thanks again!!

it shouldn't be really thick. if you put a spoon in the batter and pick it up, it shoud be thick but still really drippy.

No prob! The heat is actually in the seeds and the placenta, which is the white stuff/innards - capsaicin. Nice and hot!
