Ohhh ohhh ohhh pick me I'd like the recipe
Pig shots:
One package of smoked sausage (not kielbasa)
One pound package of thick cut bacon
One jalapeno
3/4 cup shredded cheese (your preference)
8 oz package of cream cheese
Tablespoon of dry rub (your preference)
Toothpicks
Mix the cream cheese, shredded cheese, dry rub and finely diced jalapeño. Your choice to take out seeds and membrane if you don’t want the heat. I toss about 1/4 of the seeds/membrane back in for a touch of heat. Mix well and put in the fridge.
Slice the sausage in half inch widths. Then cut the bacon in half. Best to work with the bacon within five minutes of pulling it from the fridge.
Wrap a half slice of bacon around the sausage to form your shot glass. Secure with a toothpick.
When those are done, bring your mixture back out and pipe it into the bacon cups just to the surface. Dust the tops with more dry rub and smoke (or indirect heat) on the grill anywhere from 90-110 minutes. Or until you are happy with the bacon.
I drizzle the tops with a bbq sauce for the last ten minutes of cooking. When I remove them and set them off the the side to cool, I also drizzle, lightly, honey and let the honey get that sticky tacky texture until the pig shots are cooled enough to eat.
