Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Halve the jalapeños and remove the seeds.
  3. Mix cream cheese and chopped brisket in a bowl.
  4. Stuff the jalapeño halves with the cream cheese mixture.

For less heat, substitute jalapeños with poblano or bell peppers. Optionally, use an air fryer set to 400°F (200°C) for a healthier version.
