Wash the jalapeños and remove the tops and seeds. Cut in half length wise. Wear gloves if you wish to prevent your hands from burning. I took the risk!

Place cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and chives into a bowl and mix to combine with the back of a spoon.

Stuff each half of the jalapeños with the cheese mixture.

Wrap in bacon. I used half pieces of bacon for most. But if the jalapeños are larger, you may need a full piece or slightly less. If there's extra bacon, fry it up and eat it!

If using the oven, preheat to 400°F and place poppers evenly on a baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes. If using a smoker, smoke at 150 for 10 min, then crank up to 400 and finish them off for 20 minutes.
