Pig shot rack.

[1911Ron]

My wife and I were discussing how some of the pig shots had tipped over while cooking and spilled the filling out we came up with the idea to make racks to hold them with a slight pressure to keep them upright. My wife used to be a sheet metal worker at the power plant we worked at so we decided to fabricate the racks ourselves, we are using an expanded metal sheet that is cut into the size we need and bending the sides up.

I'll burn any coating that may be on it and then season it, once that's done we'll give it a test drive!

Cream cheese, shredded cheese and green chilies.

Cream cheese, shredded cheese and green chilies.

gotta admit, that sounds really good. Now kick it up a notch and stuff a jalapeno with smoked sausage and that cheese mixture, and wrap in bacon.

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.

I wonder if you could use the mini cupcake pans for pig shots?

We used Ramekins for something else that had a bacon wrap and the problem was that the bacon grease had nowhere to go. Half way through the cook you were supposed to remove the bacon wrapped meat and crisp up the bacon but the grease was an issue.

Basically how I do my poppers....jalapeno stuffed with chorizo, cream cheese, shredded cheese (made into a pipeable mixture)...wrapped in bacon.

Maybe drill holes in each cup?

That's a possibility, I would have to get one of my own and keep it separate from the wife's stuff!
