My poblano peppers are ready to go. My picadillo is ready to go. Now it's time to stuff. So what I'm going to do is take my poblano pepper and bring it over the mixture. I'm just going to use my hands on this, cause it's really going to be the easiest thing to do. I'm going to fill the mixture with our picadillo mix. It smells awesome. I just want to make sure it gets in all the little crevasses. One thing you want to make sure of is that you don't over fill it. I'm going to see if I can try to still close it. Kind of compact it in all together. Perfect. There is one down. This guy has a little tear. That's okay. I'll show you how to do that. He's not all lost. What we'll do is kind of get the picadillo in there. Put some in the little corners here. That looks excellent. Since it's all torn on the other side, I'm just going to set it down. Be careful so it doesn't come apart on us. We'll just press it all together. Our last one. Same thing. I'm going to take a handful of our meat picadillo mixture. Another trick that sometimes we do when we make these, is you can get a cubed of cheese and kind of place our cube of (stick of cheese). Put it down the center so when you cut into it the cheese oozes out and it's really good, too. That is another option for you to kind of surprise your guests. Now I'm going to use my hands and kind of squeeze it all together. Awesome. That is what the stuffing part of this looks like.
