I have to try some of these recipies. I may add an ingredient from my wife's version of bacon wrapped water chestnuts. They are a favorite.

Great post Uncle John!! One of the great joys in my life is having children help in the kitchen. I loved it when I was a child and it's wonderful to share that magic. They will remember these moments for the rest of their lives.

I went with the OG recipe on this go round.....I had my helpers with me today, which I absolutely LOVE. Cooking becomes that much better when these little clowns are there to help! They are the greatest thing to ever happen to my kitchen!
I started with some jalapeño-cheddar kielbasa from Costco and sliced them in to thick 1/2" "coins" for the base in my shot glasses. Then I wrapped them in some cold, thick-cut bacon. The thicker coin helps you skewer the bacon to the kielbasa!
After making the pig shot glasses I had my niece (Sara) give a small squirt of Siracha into the bottom of the pig shot. (We had to do some test squirts first!)
Anyway, we blended up a mixture of sour cream, cream cheese and some Vermont Sharp Cheddar. Then I added some Slabs rub to the mix for some smokey flavoring and salt. (Sara is the best helper I could ask for!!) Here she is putting the cream cheese mixture into the 1-gallon zip lock, just before dispensing into the shots.
Sara was in charge of filling all of the Shots and making sure not to add too much to each pig shot. (Her younger brother, John, was not as careful..... )
After we added the cream cheese, it was time for the little shrimp to be added to the top. Sara and John both helped out with this one.
I can not wait to get these cooking tomorrow. Look how proud these kids are of their hard work! I was melting the entire time they were doing this. Come to think of it, they pretty much did all of it. This really is why we do what we do. Happy Super Bowl Everyone. I am beyond lucky to have such wonderful assistants to make my Super Bowl special!

I picked up the goodies for this tonight. I am going to use Jalapeño Kielbasa, White Cheddar, thick-cut hickory bacon, Melidnas hot sauce, and Cowboy caviar!
I can't wait!
