Recipe Preparation
  • 16 slices of bacon
  • 16 manicotti shells
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce

Filling:

  • 1 lb ground beef (cooked and drained)
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ½ cup tomatoes (diced)
  • ½ cup corn
  • ¼ cup sliced scallions
  • ¼ cup diced jalapenos
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 2 tsp BBQ dry rub
Step Description
1
Combine all of the filling ingredients and place them into piping bags.
2
Pipe the filling into the uncooked manicotti shells, then wrap each manicotti with bacon and chill in the fridge overnight or for at least 3-4 hours. The bacon will soften the pasta.
3
Using your ThermoPro TP25 Leave-In Meat Thermometer to check the temperature, preheat the smoker to 300°F (149°C) and cook for about 1 hour until the bacon is crispy. Brush with BBQ sauce and cook for 10-15 more minutes.
4
Serve with ranch for dipping. Enjoy!
