Ingredients:
- Lane’s Island Dust
- Lane’s Pineapple Chipotle BBQ Sauce
- Candied Jalapeños or Fresh
- 1 cup Pulled Pork
- 8 oz Cream Cheese
- Manicotti Pasta Shells
- 1 pack of sliced Bacon
- ¼ cup Sharp Cheddar
Instructions:
1. Parboil the manicotti shells ONLY 1 – 2 minutes (just to slightly soften them which will keep the shells from getting crunchy) – be sure to let cool for 10 minutes
2. In a bowl mix together pulled pork, cream cheese, sharp cheddar, 2 tbsp Pineapple Chipotle, 1 tbsp candied jalapeños (or finely diced fresh), and season with Island Dust Seasoning
3. Pipe or fill by hand the manicotti shells with the mixture. I found it is easier to fill one side as much as you can and then switch and fill the other side.
4. Using 2 slices of bacon wrap each shell completely and season with Island Dust
5. Place in fridge for a couple of hours
6. Smoke/grill indirect at 250 (cherry wood is perfect) cook for 1 to 1 ½ hours.
7. Once the bacon is looking crispy and close to being done brush with Pineapple Chipotle sauce and finish cooking. Glaze should be setup nice. Remove and let cool, enjoy.
