So I'm gathering all my stuff outta the fridge to make a Chicken Cordon bleu and I ask Taby what kind of cheese she wants in them, she repplied with great enthusiasm.
CREAM CHEESE!
Great,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I had to open my mouth. ::)
Not that I dont like cream cheese, I love it, just never did it this way.
I wrapped the 2 oz cream cheese in about 4 layers of ham, kinda making like wrapping up a steak in freezer paper. Then placed on a hunk of chicken breast that had the hell beat outta it and rolled up.
Well got all carried away making these babys I forgot to take any pictures. :-\
Gave them 2 hr Apple with the cabnet temp set at 260 F. I wanted the bacon to shrink and seal these babys before the heat got to the cream cheese.
Walla!

Those are what you would use in place of a toothpick when wrapping a loin steak with bacon.
I have know idea what there called but got them from a butcher supply store, talked him into a hand full of them otherwise they sell in bags of 100.
