DudeFood Tuesday: Stuffed Jalapenos (Part 2) with minced meat

This week between Christmas and New Years Eve is happy time for all Dudes worldwide.
Happy time because we survived all the bling bling trees and girly house decorations and we can put this all behind us.
Just one or two more weeks of living in a Barbie doll house and all decorations can be stowed away again in crates. For almost a year! Yippie!!
And it’s all for the best, because all that posh decorations, but especially that sickly sweet Christmas songs affect even the most battle hardened Dudes among us.  Around Christmas the Misses tends to put on those honey sweet Christmas songs that grind relentlessly at the manliness of every Dude.

Hordes of musicians sing about ‘the most wonderful time of the year’ with jingling Christmas bells as support. And for sure every Dude is prepared to face Mariah Carey and Wham and they know to put their dudeshield up when these enchanting sweet tones flow from the speakers.
But far more dangerous are the mesmerizing traps that are set by Chris Rea or Slade. They who rob even the most Dudeworthy Dude of their manliness with their low manly voice or compelling rocktune.
Because their songs are also hidden and to be heard between all the Christmas songs. And before you know it you’ll be humming those songs along, or even worse: singing the full lyrics aloud.
And then, to make the Unduding drama complete, you’ll see the Misses standing in the doorway. And when you feel like a child caught with his hand in the honey jar, she jovially pipes: “You see? Christmas is a time for joy for every one.”

Help meeeeeee!
But fortunately this time of year is over and we can play the songs of Iron Maiden, Sabbath and Metallica again. And that kind of music refills the Dudetosteron of every Dude again.
Another relieving thought is that New Years Eve is approaching; a night to set off some fireworks! More Dudey than Christmas, don’t you think?
Please find, as promised, the second recipe for some tasty fireworks: stuffed jalapeños with minced meat. For me a perfect snack to serve on Newe Years Eve.
