Manicotti shells stuffed with cheese and sausage, wrapped in bacon, smothered in BBQ sauce, and smoked to perfection. These shotgun shells are sure to be a hit, and they are perfect for tailgating. They can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to eat. So fire up the grill and get cooking!
You can also make these shells with lasagna noodles, making it easier to stuff the sausage with a piece of melty string cheese (because you can't have too much cheese).
Wrapping the shotgun shells in lots of bacon and ensuring that they are coated with plenty of BBQ is essential for a perfect result. The extra moisture from the bacon and BBQ sauce helps to cook the pasta completely and prevent the edges of the pasta from drying out while cooking and becoming crispy.
Precooking the manicotti slightly will give the shotgun shells a better texture and ensure the noodles get fully cooked on the smoker. If you use lasagna noodles, cook them until they are flexible enough to wrap around the sausage.
