 -=> Quoting "T. Matthew Evans" to All <=-

 "ME> Put up three kinds of pepper jelly last night -- about 8 jars
 "ME> (different sizes) of each.

 "ME> I have been blessed with a TON of this jelly.  My first instinct
 "ME> is to make a BBQ sauce or glaze with some of it (ribs or
 "ME> chicken?). After that, though, I'm plumb out of ideas.  Anybody
 "ME> have some good uses for pepper jelly?  Desserts?

  As a glaze for ribs, ham, roast pork and wild game birds like quail.

  As an accompaniment to roast poultry, meats or game.

  Make a cranberry-pepper jelly for turkey.

  On toast with scrambled eggs and sausages

      Title: Nappy Pie
 Categories: Appetizers, Dips, Chilies, Fruit, Eggs
      Yield: 1 batch
 
      3    Ripe avocados, peeled and
           -thinly sliced
      6    Hard cooked eggs
      4 tb Green onion, finely chopped
      6 tb Miracle whip
    1/4 ts Dijon mustard
      2 tb Chopped fresh parsley
           Juice of half a lemon
           Salt and pepper to taste
  1 1/2 c  Sour cream, mixed with
    1/8 ts Dijon mustard
    1/2 c  Jalapeno jelly
 
  Dip sliced avocado in lemon juice and arrange on bottom of a quiche or
  pie plate.  Mash the cooked eggs and combine with the green onion,
  miracle whip, mustard, parsley and salt and pepper.  Spoon an even
  layer over the avocados, then spread sour cream mixture evenly over
  top. Spread Jalapeno jelly over top, cover and chill for several
  hours. Serve with crackers, and let your guests, spoon the dip on the
  crackers.

  Note: If you want that added Zip, then the jalapeno jelly is really
  essential. If all you have on hand is regular pepper jelly, then add a
  couple of dashes of hot sauce to the jelly before spreading it on top
  of the pie.

  Alternating green and red jalapeno jelly on top, makes it very
  attractive to serve for Christmas.
