Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 15-ounce can tomato sauce
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 6 green bell pepper
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Hey Grill Hey Beef Rub or equal parts salt and pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 4 oz Monterey Jack Cheese shredded
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh parsley minced

Instructions

  • Prepare pepper. Cut the bell pepper a half inch down from the top to remove the stem and the curved top side of the pepper. Using a large spoon, scoop out the seeds and the pith and discard. Cut off any extra bell pepper from the stem portion, and dice. Set aside with the diced onion and garlic.
    6 green bell pepper
  • Preheat. Warm a 12" cast iron skillet over medium heat. You can cook this on your stove or in your grill.
  • Start filling. Add 1 Tablespoon of olive oil to your skillet. Add the diced pepper and onions, and sauté for 3-5 minutes until they start to turn translucent. Add in your ground beef, garlic, parsley, Signature Beef Seasoning (or salt and pepper), and the oregano. Cook, stirring frequently to break apart the meat for an additional 3-5 minutes.

  • Finish filling. Add the tomato sauce and the rice to the skillet and stir to combine. Add more seasoning as needed. As the peppers cook, the rice will absorb a lot of the liquid.

  • Preheat. Set your grill or oven to Medium heat (350 degrees F) for 2-zone cooking.
  • Fill peppers. Add the rice and meat mixture to your hollowed peppers, and top them with the shredded cheese.
    4 oz Monterey Jack Cheese
  • Grill stuffed peppers. Place the peppers on the grill grates on the indirect heat side of your grill, close the lid, and grill for 30-40 minutes or until the peppers are soft and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve and enjoy. Remove them from the grill, garnish with a little more minced parsley, and enjoy!
