After cooking on the pit, I wonder if you could put in a tray with sauce that also had onions and maybe peppers and let them simmer for a while and then serve with the sauce.

I don't see why you couldn't do that. The shells were done they were a bit tough where they were exposed and dried out but not to the point of being hard like uncooked pasta.

Are you thinking a BBQ sauce or a tomato based like in sausage peppers and onions?

[BigDave83]

Those look great, nicely done.

EDIT:  Probably could use a Sausage Stuffer (if you have one) to fill them.
Or maybe one of those Cake Decorator bags would work for stuffing if the end was open enough.

I have one of these I bought a while back when I used to do jalapenos by just cutting the tops off.

I picked up something like this at a restaurant supply place, and used it to fill peppers with cream cheese mix.

That piping bag is what I was thinking of.  Couldn't remember what it was called.

If ya have the tips, all you need is a zip lock bag!  Or better yet a big vac seal bag!

You aint gonna find Rigatoni in Mayberry!

Did you mean manicoti?  I think one would have a pretty hard time stuffing rigatoni.

I think jumbo shell pasta could possibly work too and may be easier to stuff with a spoon especially if you wrap bacon around the shell and put a stick or two through it.

I was thinking a tomato based sauce with onions and green peppers.

If I found them in the sticks where I live I can't imagine anyone else not being able to find them.

Bent said this to me today so I went to our local somewhat "upscale" supermarket which has a huge pasta shelf with numerous different brands.  No manicotti.

Culpepper VA? If I remember. I just did a quick look safeway and weis both show Barilla manicotti.

OK, I will have to travel to the "far" side of town to shop but it will be worth it (now watch, they will be sold out!)

Is it a big town? There is a BBQ place there some friends stopped at and they said it was good. Shawn's I think is the name.

[Kristin Meredith]

It's not a big town, but spread out in different directions and, of course, we are several miles from town out in the country. We are on the opposite side of town from these markets so about a 20 mile round trip.  We went to Shawn's years ago and did a review.  Haven't been in a while, but it was good.
