Method
Preheat your smoker or grill to 350 degrees.
Cut sausage into one inch pieces. Cut bacon strips in half lengthwise.
Wrap bacon pieces around the sausage and secure with a toothpick, creating a "shot glass."
Combine cream cheese, cheddar and seasoning in a small bowl. Transfer to a plastic bag, then snip a corner of the bag, creating a one-inch opening.
Pipe cheese mixture into the well of each shot glass.
Place the shots on a baking sheet and smoke for 45 minutes, or until the bacon is fully cooked and the cheese filling is puffed and golden.
Remove toothpicks, drizzle with buffalo hot sauce and serve.
