After receiving all of your great ideas, I thought I should update the thread. Unfortunately, my son ended up sick Friday night, so we had to cancel the event. Oh well, we are back on later this month, and as I will have time to make some pulled pork, I am really looking forward to it
On a side note, I did look up Pig Shots, and finally cooked them tonight. They were good, but not as good as I was expecting. I think I made three mistakes though....
1) too much cream cheese,
2) not enough brown sugar
3) I got them ready an hour too early, so the sugar had soaked into the cream cheese by the time they went on the grill.
Still, they were good enough that I think I will have to try making them again.

Funny thing. I did some pig shots yesterday, and for the first time, they sucked. I've made them several times before with fantastic results.
Another funny thing. You just diagnosed my problem too. I went overboard w/ the cream cheese and underboard with the brown sugar. I got Philly Cream Cheese this time, whereas before I've always bought the generic. It puffed up and had these little brown bumps all over it yesterday. It had a burnt taste too. I'll be going back to the generic the next time I do them. I think that the "lower quality" cream cheese might just be a better fit for smoking. Not sure, though. Also, they got done when no one was around and weren't very good an hour later when I served them. These are definitely an appetizer that should go straight from smoker to mouths.
