Preheat the smoker to 300 degrees F.
Slice the sausages into about ¾ inch pieces (approximately 30 slices)
Wrap each sausage slice with half a slice of bacon making the sausage the base.
Secure the bacon with a skewer or toothpick through the bottom of the sausage.
Make the filling by adding the cream cheese, cheese, chipotles, and ½ the rub into a mixing bowl.
Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix to combine
Then add the filling to a Zip-Lock bag and cut the end off.
Pipe the filling into the sausage/bacon “shot glass”
Sprinkle with a little more bbq rub
Place on a small rack or cooling rack if using to transfer out to the smoker.
Place the rack on the grates(or can place the pig shots directly on the grates), close the lid, and let smoke at 300 degrees for about 45 minutes. (Optional- place a pan underneath to catch any drippings).
Then once the bacon is almost done to your liking, drizzle each pig shot with a little Agave and let cook a little longer for about 15 minutes.
Serve warm and enjoy.

* If you like spicy you could use 3-4 chipotles.

*Cook time may vary according to your ability to keep the temperature and your preference on the crispiness of the bacon.

* Can also use regular kielbasa as well.
