Not at all !! Please do.
I’ve made quite a few over the years. Not only are the poppers a hit at the parties, but you’ll find that rack is as well. Darby even sold one to a guest one time for $150.00 (think drunk, rich rancher).
I’ve got three of them that size now that I’ll hold on to for sure. I’ve even put little handles on the sides for easy transport.
Chicken wire and “anti-bunny fencing”. Can load them up the night before (there is a bit of prep time for a load of 100+ poppers) and put them in the beer cooler. Set them up on a medium grill for about 15-20 minutes (brown the cheese, crisp up the bacon a tad and wrinkle the pepper). They will draw a crowd. And, you wouldn’t believe how fast those poppers are gone.
Also, you try a slice of dove breast. Or, some sausage mixed into the cheese blend. The sky’s the limit on the stuffing. Always a hit.
You’ll find too, that over time/use, they will get as seasoned as a nice piece of cast iron cookware.
Pretty simple - but if you'd like a better picture, just ask.
