My aunt used to stuff cherry peppers with a hot sausage mix and then deep fry them, they were served as appetizers. Being a chilihead I upped the anti by using jalapeno peppers

Very interesting recipe.  Gotta try these.  

If you kept the gator name I might have suggested stuffing with a cajun andouille style sausage.

or stuff with chorizo and they could be added to the breakfast burritos as a side dish.

 I have used chorizo a couple of times but don't have a local source for andouille, a spicey brkfast sausage also works as does a taco mixture using ground beef or even pulled pork.

 As far as the name goes, it was changed for the season. I make these rather often and they are usually just called dads peppers but I saw a program some yrs ago where they were making armidillo eggs which are basically the same thing except they are breaded and then deep fried and I though mine needed a catchy name. They do look kind of turdish and here in florida we have a lot of gators and more locally the gators (fl)and bulldogs(ga) football game.. and a name was born.

 Call them what you want, fill them as you want, just enjoy them !
 Thank you for commenting

I think reindeer droppings look more like coffee beans... but I could be wrong.

You could be right, Im not a rerindeer expert.... We usually call these gator turds but in keeping with the season I changed the name  but I don't think it will catch on = S

Oooo, gotta feel the burn going in and out.  Maybe you should make a sour cream/guacamole fire extinguisher sauce/dip for us weenies.
