For a milder flavor, use pickled sweet peppers instead of jalapeños.
If you don't have skewers, you can cook the poppers directly on the grill grate, but be sure to turn them frequently to prevent burning.
To ensure even cooking, use bacon slices of similar thickness.
For easier handling, partially freeze the pheasant breast before cutting it into pieces.
