My Tweaks: 
Pressed as much grease out of the meat mixture as possible before stuffing. It was super greasy. 
Added shredded cheese in the middle of the meat mix layers

  1. I am excited to try this recipe. How big of a serving to fill up a teenage boy do you think? I am leaning toward splitting 3 pepper equivalents between 2 16-year olds.
