Pig Shots

Pig Shots
Pig shots are a simple and amazing appetizer or tailgating recipe! Plus, anytime you can combine cream cheese and bacon that is a win for me.

It helps to freeze the bacon a bit to help keep its shot glass form. Also put the mixture in a zip lock bag and snip a corner off and squeeze into the shot glass! Cheers

Just got done putting 4 dozen of these together for a family gathering later today. I used a cheese ball knife and a small pairing knife to stuff the "shot". Scoop a small amount with the cheese ball knife and scrape it in with the pairing knife. Worked so smooth, no mess . Gonna fire up the smoker in alittle while.

Recipes and cooks are second to none. I have never been steered wrong by Matt. We have multiple spices from meat church and they are the real deal

My son on Bones and Brews BBQ does these with home made jalapeno pimento cheese topped with your meat church seasoning and a jalapeño slice. Very Very good. They have become my go to for BBQ starters

More Cowboys tailgate cooks would be awesome. Loving your product and enjoying your work.

[SteveDOES]

Mmmm, great recipe Matt. I can't wait to make these!

[mikez]

Rocking out that yeti goal zero. I have same setup. I love it

I’m a huge fan of the cowboys here in Australia, always have bin, I’m an even bigger fan of yours Matt thanks mate for all your awesome vids and recipes, cheers

[lumberingdeer]

I’m doing these for a christmas eve party. Not going by a recipe but I’m using ranch dressing mix for the spices and going to smoke them lower and slower probably around 275

[LloydMayes]

I have got to try this, looks awesome

Long time follower...love your channel. You are onto something with the tailgating videos. Even if they are short- they are diff and interesting/idea inspiring We are Memphis Tiger season ticket holders and we had an absolute BLAST at the Cotton Bowl vs. Penn State at the end of December 2019 before things went to hell. That stadium is BAD ASS. Looking forward to going back for a Cowboys game. Love Drew Pearson and so many others. Jay Novacek, Randy White, don't get me started. Go Cowboys!

Alright, I went and tried my hand at these pig shots. They turned out good. Did them exactly like you did them, except I used a frosting bag. 350 on my Weber SmokeFire, for 45 minutes. Like I said before…love this channel, and your work. Keep it up.

I've made something like this before, but instead of beef sausage, I used li'l smokies, and I left out the filling, and instead of bacon, I wrapped them in crescent rolls, and instead of smoking them, baked them in the oven.

These will be on our Super Bowl Party Table. Thanks so much. The other item that we will be making is an appetizer we found in a Mexican/BBQ Restaurant in Burnet Texas called the Mexican. Unfortunately they are no longer in business. They called them, Angels on Horseback. A large shrimp butterflied. Place a slice of Jalapeno and Monterey Jack cheese into the butterflied area and wrap the shrimp with a half slice of bacon. Toothpick it closed and smoke on the pellet smoker, 375 degrees for 30 minutes. They will go so good with your Pig Shots.

Matt "Jerry Jones is the best GM in pro sports" Pittman giving us another tailgate treasure. I don't even know how he comes up with some of these ideas. Must be the slow jazz.

We live on the MS Gulf Coast and watched the Cowboys and Saints play in NO this season. Always been Saints fans, but I'm a MSU graduate so we love us some Dak Prescott! Started following the Cowboys heavy when he went there and haven't stopped. Hope to make the game this next season which I anticipate will be in Dallas. If we do, we'll see if we can stop by and say hello in the tailgate area! Really like what you do and I will definitely be trying this. Quite possibly for the Superbowl this year.

Drew Pearson, the original number 88. Whoever else wears that number in Dallas, has to live up to that legacy of excellence.

[PSSKDerby]

Great recipe Matt! Wondering if the sausage was already cooked

[sgtserginsky]

What size generator do you use to power your pellet grill?

I heard the NFL is moving all future Superbowls to Dallas to make sure no team in the big game is ever at their home field again.
