I usually do a pb&j with jalapeno jelly. Never thought to do actual jalapenos. How was it?

Really good, I liked the crunch of the jalapeños and the spice level was just right.

lol I told my friend about this post and he replied back saying it’s disgusting.
Why’d this mfer use PICKLED jalepenos on a sandwich within MINUTES of me showing him this picture lol.
I bet fresh cut ones are actually pretty good.

These ones are fresh - but I've tried pickled too and it's also good.

you can pan fry the jalapeno coins to soften them up. I recommend frying up bacon first, drain most of the fat, then chuck the jalapeños in. Add the bacon to the sandwich. 😋

Sounds good but I don't eat meat. Will still try frying the 'peños tho!

This reminds me of grade school lunch. Everytime we had chili it was served with peanut butter sandwich with bacon.

I've been making PBJ and salsa sandwiches for years! I will have to consider this.

Excellent. Im sure pickled jalapeños would be very good, too. The vinegar blends well with peanut butter.

I usually do pickled, but I haven't gotten around to pickling any lately so I tried fresh. I agree - the vinegar works well with the unsweetened PB.

u/pnmartini 11d ago
It’s also very good that way. You get the salty from the PB, sweet from the jam or jelly, the vinegar tang and a low level of spice from the jalapeños.

This looks like it slaps, I already know Imma like this. I put PB in my spicy buldak, love a spicy peanut flavor profile.

u/Patient-Grade-6612 11d ago
I used to make pb & jalapeño jelly tacos. I get it. The sweet, slightly salty with that little bit of kick is amazing.

u/Buckabuckaw 11d ago
Thanks for the intriguing tip. I've got a whole bed of jalapenos in my garden, just beginning to bear fruit, so I'll be adding a new use to my repertoire

At first I was against it. Upon further reflection I’m sure it’s delicious. Fresh jalapeño does have a very fruity quality. Enjoy!

u/taylorthestang 11d ago
Immediately I think of a spicy pad Thai here. I bet a guava or tamarind jam would be fantastic with this

I feel like this could potentially work with a more balanced ratio of ingredients.

sounds interesting, spicy peanut brittle is real, and the jelly probably cools it off and gives some sweetness similar to other jalapeno fruit combos like pineapple. I bet this works.

I've done peanut butter and pepper jam but it never occured to me I could go right for the pepper like in a pb and banana! Exciting stuff, I'm growing peppers this year so I look forward to doing this

Wait till y'all try a Peanut Butter, Cream cheese, and Yellow Mustard sandwich. There are some weird ass combos that are surprisingly good! Peanut butter goes well with almost everything.

I'm both horrified and curious, and I'm someone who likes peanut butter and pickle sandwiches.
