Texas Twinkies

Shred the brisket off cuts by pulling them apart.

Mix with cream cheese, about 70 percent cream cheese to 30 percent brisket; grate in Vermont sharp white cheddar and a little low-sodium seasoning for umami; mix again.

Cut the tops off the jalapenos and core them.

Fill as full as possible, lay on the cutting board, roll in bacon and pin with a toothpick.

Shallow fry in Wagyu beef tallow in an aluminum pan on the griddle so the jalapeno cooks through and the bacon crisps all round; a griddle alone crisps only the side touching the metal.

Done when the bacon is as crisp as wanted and the skin is blistered; cool briefly before eating.
