BBQ Shotgun Shells | Savory, Cheesy & Crispy Bacon-Wrapped

In a bowl, mix the ground pork with the grated cheddar cheese and finely chopped jalapeños. Thoroughly stir in the smoked paprika, garlic powder, brown cane sugar, fine table salt, and ground black pepper until a homogeneous mixture forms.

Carefully and evenly stuff the uncooked cannelloni tubes with the ground meat and cheese mixture. This works best using your fingers or a piping bag so that no air pockets remain.

Wrap each filled cannelloni tightly and seamlessly with bacon – usually, two strips per tube are enough. The ends should be sealed well so that the melting cheese stays inside while grilling.
