This Pig Shots recipe screams BBQ! These are bite size smoked sausage pieces wrapped in crispy bacon and filled with a spicy cream cheese mixture!

INGREDIENTS

  • 12 oz. smoked sausage

DIRECTIONS

  1. Cut the smoked sausage into large coins, about 1-1.5 inches large.

  3. In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, Texas style seasoning, green onion, and cheddar cheese. Feel free to add more than what is listed above, measure with your heart!
  4. Once it's all combined, fill the tops of the pig shots with the cream cheese mixture.
