Slice chicken breasts in half WIDTH wise (Each half will make 1 Chicken Bomb). Place between two pieces of wax paper and pound to ¼ inch thickness. A rolling pin also does the trick. Season each with salt a pepper.
Slice jalapeños in half LENGTH wise and remove seeds, ribs, and the end with the stem.
In a small bowl, mix your softened cream cheese with your grated colby jack. Fill each jalapeño half with about 1 TBSP cheese mixture.
Place 1 jalapeño half at the end of each pounded breast piece. Roll over and together. It doesn't always close the way you think it should. No worries! The bacon will pull it all together.
Wrap each breast piece with 2 slices of bacon and wrap kinda tightly and tuck the ends of the bacon under the strips. It all comes together in the cooking process. If you have trouble with the roll staying together, you may opt to use a toothpick.
TO GRILL:
Place on grill using INDIRECT heat.and cook for 20-25 minutes, turning every 4-5 minutes. Baste chicken with BBQ sauce each time you turn it, giving it one final basting right before it's done. Chicken is ready when it reaches an internal temp of 165 degrees. If you don't have a meat thermometer, pierce chicken with a fork. If juices run clear, it's done!
TO BAKE IN OVEN:
Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Basting with BBQ sauce a few times during cooking. Baste once again when finished, and place under broil setting for a few minutes so bacon can crisp completely.
