COOK IT.
Preheat your Pit Boss wood pellet grill or smoker to 350°F.
First, core and seed your jalapeños using a paring knife or a coring tool! If you like it spicy, you can leave some of the seeds intact.
Once your jalapeños are cored and seeded, make the cream cheese filling! All you have to do is mix the cream cheese, shredded cheese, garlic powder, and Pit Boss Sweet Heat BBQ Rub in a medium bowl until the ingredients are well combined.
Then it's time to build the Raptor Claws! Carefully stuff the jalapeños with the cream cheese mixture, and top each jalapeño with sausage before generously seasoning with Pit Boss Sweet Heat BBQ Rub.
Smoke at 350°F for about 45 minutes, or until you reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Once you reach 165°F, baste each Raptor Claw with BBQ Sauce, and cook for another 5 minutes.
Remove from the grill, allow to cool slightly, and enjoy!
