Smoked Pig Shots
Ingredients
Instructions
Prep
  1. Cut the sausage into approximately 1/2” sized rounds.
  2. Mix softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and jalapeño together, and then season with the all-purpose rub of your choice to taste.
  3. Wrap a half piece of bacon around the sausage to form a “shot class” mold. Use a toothpick to hold the shape by putting the toothpick through the bacon into the sausage from the bottom of the “shot glass”.
  4. Once the “shot glasses” are formed, fill them with the cream cheese mixture using a spoon, or a ziplock bag by piping it into the “shot glass”.
  5. Once the pig shots are made, season with a light layer of BBQ rub.
Cook
