Directions

Combine onion, jalapeno, cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper and pork mince in a large bowl, mix well to combine.

Fill cannelloni shells with mince mixture, then wrap each shell in a strip of bacon. Place on a large tray, cover and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat a smoker to 120°C (250F). Place cannelloni shells directly on the smoker grill and smoke for 1 hour 15 minutes.

Heat BBQ sauce in a small saucepan on low, until warmed.

Brush shells with some sauce to glaze, continue to smoke for 20 minutes.

Baste again with the sauce, then smoke for a further 20 minutes.

Transfer to a serving platter and serve hot.
