Chicken Thighs and 1st time making pigshots.

[Evil-g]

Made some chicken thighs for the Spring Potluck at the garden club and also decided to try some pigshots.

Thighs with Sucklebusters SPG


Thighs with my own rub


Pigshots with Turbinado sugar and Pecan rub, Cherry rub and Maple Bacon rub


And of course a disaster


All and all I had about 10 left.





Thanks for Lookin!!!

Looks good to me man - I'd hit all that!

And if I still got wasted, those ones on the ground probably wouldn't have gone to waste...

 

[AClarke44]

All looks great! I gotta get me one of those vortex contraptions!

Oh and I learned in survival school that dirt just adds a little texture to the food. Pick those pig shots up, dust'm off and eat em.....lol. :becky: :thumb:

Looks great, what about the 5 second rule on the ones that took a dive?

 

[NightRogue]

Looks good. Nice that you made an offering to the BBQ gods.

For the uninitiated ... What's a pig shot?

A Pig Shot is a disk or coin of sausage wrapped in half a piece of bacon to make a cup. It's filled usually with a mixture of cream cheese, sour cream (to thin it out), cheddar cheese, and rub. After that, you can add whatever suits your fancy. Pipe the filling into the cups and smoke until the back just starts to firm up (they continue to cook a little longer). Great appetizers, but very rich. I can only eat like a dozen of them, and then I feel oof...

For the following, I added chopped Pulled Pork to the filling and then topped with a drop of Stubb's Spicy BBQ Sauce.

The pigshots I made bacon wrapped kielbasa or smoked sausage, cream cheese, Turbinado sugar with BBQ rub sprinkled on top. Just make certain the sausage is sliced to about half the height of the bacon, fill with cream cheese and sprinkle Turbinado sugar and then the BBQ rub.
Ps, use a half slice of bacon and a toothpick for pigshot.

If you need more info do a search for pigshots towards the bottom of the page, you will find many threads.

Do you do your shots indirect the whole time?

Oh my coronary! Excellent explanation.

Do you do your shots indirect the whole time?

Yup, you are smoking them, but you want your bacon to crisp.
Then, they are done. I tend to have them well away from the fire, and move things in closer. Temps have stabilized by that time.

Gotta try pig shots.

I drop a rack of ribs once. Right in the dirt. Washed of and refired. Alcohol was involved

 

[mchar69]

You can also do MUSHROOM shots.
Clean out the gills and stem and fill 'em and bill 'em.

 

[Evil-g]

Do you do your shots indirect the whole time?

Yes, I do.

[mchar69]

Once your bacon is done, you should be done.
