Are you looking for a fun and delicious appetizer to serve your guests at your next get together? Well look no further, as I have the perfect suggestion for you, Bacon Wrapped Sausage Poppers.
Thanks to Jabin from Postal Barbecue for the idea and inspiration for me to try these myself. They were a big hit, as my whole family loved them. Let me show you how easy they are to make.
Ingredients:
Sausages (I used Sweet Italian and Bratwurst)
Bacon (get the thin cut)
Grated Cheese
Jalapenos
Cream Cheese
BBQ Rub of your choice
First take your sausage and slice into the top section with a sharp knife and then open them up. Sprinkle the inside with cheese, then add thin sliced of cream cheese on top. Add some more cheese and then place halved jalapenos on top. Then wrap them up with a few slices of bacon. Finally sprinkle them with some BBQ Rub.
Set up your smoker to cook between 275-300 degrees. Smoke them for an hour or so and then check to see how the bacon is looking. Feel free to increase the temperature to help crisp up the bacon. Once the bacon is done to your liking remove and allow to rest for 10 minutes or so. Enjoy!
