I can hear the real emotion in your voice when you describe the poor man who lost his grandson. They say you can't really know someone well from behind the camera, but I can't help but feel like you're a great person. From a longtime fan, thanks for all the entertainment, delicious recipes, and for providing a very interesting window into the "real" cowboy culture.
For anyone watching this from my side of the pond in the UK, the Chorizo Kent is using is Mexican Chorizo, not the cured Spanish type. We can't buy it here, but it's easy to make, there are lots of recipes on the Internet.
@@keithatkinson7649 I make mine too I buy Boston butt when on sale and grind in up make chorizo and Italian both very easy way better then store bought
Cowboy Kent my son Nathan was diagnosed with Aspergers High Functioning Autism he rarely leaves our home but loves and watches your videos. He is going to be 28 in March. He hasn't shown interest in cooking until watching your videos. My hubby and I bought a Pellet Grill Smoker, and we just ordered a whole bunch of your product and your cookbook and will order your new one in March. He is wanting to start learning how to make your recipes. I just wanted to let you know you have blessed our family so much with your videos and your love of Faith, Family and our Service Members his brother is also a disabled Veteran. After 10 years is now at home raising our Grand babies. Thank you so much for your videos for giving us your recipes and for the love you show for each one of your viewers. Lord bless you and keep you and make His face shine upon you and give you His Shalom peace!!! Sincerely the Prossers & Nathan James Clark.
Just a quick note from someone who grew up with manicotti. To fill the dried pasta use a pastry bag OR put the filling inside a zip lock style bag, then snip a corner off the bottom with scissors and squeeze the filling in, also if you have one, a sausage stuffer does it very quick. Thank you for all the great recipes!
Everyone of you( taste testers included ) are angels on earth!!! You never fail to give us so much happiness!!! I gotta thank you Mr. Cowboy, you Miss Shan and all the pups, everyone of you bring us so much enjoyment that mere words cannot express!!!!
@Stop The-insanity I bought mine off craigslist for $25, but I've used old barrels before to smoke a ham. They're not complicated, just remember slow & low... above 180°F but below 250°F and smoke for a while then cover in foil and place back in smoker until done. It's about 2-3 hrs for ribs, 4-6 for larger thick cuts & then about 8-10 hours for a whole hog (depending on size)
I love how Godly this community is, and I hate asking for things but I'm a Volunteer Firefighter and I have many Brothers and Sisters. Well sadly my state and others have been loosing Volunteer Firefighters, Police Officers, and EMT, and even Dispatchers to suicide. I would like to ask for some extra prayers for their families as well as our active duty, to be healthy minded and powerful. Thank you all so very much.
@@CowboyKentRollinsabsolutely… I love being a part of a crew that can take a travesty for a family or business and turn it into something a bit more positive
There's something about something on the internet that's pure. Good hearted, with nothing but good intentions behind it. Good vibes and good eating is what it's all about here. I for one see it as a port in the storm. Thank you Kent and Shan ❤️
And all of us serving or ex military members thank you and yours as well. People like you are why people volunteer to be in danger. To protect this way of life.
Rollins family have given us all a very sacred gift with these videos.. they make the world feel like a small town .. they will always have my respect from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Always a great day when Kent and Shan drop a new video!!! I look forward to them every Wednesday!!! May God continue to bless y'all richly in 2023!!!😁🎉🎑
Cowboy Kent, you are the ONLY TH-camr I've ever seen (and I watch a lot of different videos) who has directly addressed your audience about those scam prize messages. That shows your care bud. I appreciate and respect that.
Outstanding video and recipe as always Kent. Most importantly though, I couldn't agree with you more about just how amazing, compassionate, and supportive this community is here. It's truly an honor and privilege to be a part of it.
I’ll never forget that man. His grandson’s name was the same as my grandson. My heart just aches for that family, I just can’t imagine. Delicious meal, heading over to your website now to print up the recipe. Thank you Kent!
I enjoy your videos. Lot of info. And lots of laughs... To o all of you. I'm currently in a VA hospital. Going through chemotherapy.. asking for the your prayers
You hang in there. I pray to God for your recovery. VA is all I got also. My great uncle lasted until 97 years with only VA. My uncle, well, they took good care of him too.
I think three of your dogs were absolutely mesmerized by your sausage stuffing - especially the Beag who appeared to be a statue. Sure looks good to me too. I only wish I had subscribed to smell-a-vision when that salesman came around. God bless you folks (you're the reason for your fans!) and my heart still goes out to Chico. I cannot fathom his loss.
I always like to see you uploading not only because you have amazing recipes and the foods are comforting, but also for the heartwarming kindness that you guys convey in the delightful old-fashioned manner.
Kent we lift you up in prayer. We give thanks for your blessing and talent. Your humor and cooking skills are used for positivity and in a constructive way. We are so grateful for you. Appreciate you remembering our service people in all your videos as well
interesting how skills interchange the way you stuffed the filling in those there manicotti is exactly how i learned to pack grease in a wheel bearing, one of the few pastas i never worked with in the restaurant industry, I've effectively worked 2 careers in my life first as a restaurant cook then as a mechanic also did a hitch in the army so salute to your hats off it is always appreciated
I am glad you are still kickin'. Your TH-cam videos and a woman in Finland kept me looking forward during the Covid19 scare. I have told and shown all my friends your cooking. Thank you Kent, Shannon, Nina (in Finland), and crew (I spent my life being "crew"). You are the best.
I made these last Fourth of July but I didn't let them rest/set and the pasta was definitely undercooked. I'll have to try them again. Also, God bless the two of you. Ever since I stumbled onto your channel (back when there were only a few hundred thousand subscribers) it's done nothing but fill my life with joy and my belly with goodness. I'm a neighbor up north in Kansas and you are the epitome of good midwestern character. I wish more people were like you. We'd be in a much better place.
Just dint precook the noodles. I did that after reading a comment from a TH-cam video pasta was so soft I couldn'tnt stuff noodles. Just the bacon and meat cook the noodles with the moisture.
Huge hugs and prayers for your family and the grandpa who lost his grandson. That is absolutely a horrible thing to have to deal with. We will be praying for him and his family. Thank you for your videos. Very entertaining.
Got them folks at Hasty Bake welding me up a smoker box right now.Always wanted to try these but couldn't figure out how the pasta wouldn't be raw and crunchy in spots.5 hrs in the ice box and that grease coming up to temp will do it. Thanks folks,BTW most of us who fought for this country did so for folks like you.Not FJB lol
I love watching your videos on Friday mornings here in Australia just because not only are they great recipes but also the fact that you're not over the top like some other cooking show personalities. Keep it up, my friend, and you and your family have a great day! Look forward to seeing next week's video 👍
This is my second comment on this video: It always pulls at my heart when CKR thanks the veterans. As a military retiree, 21 years, thank you CKR. We did it for you!
Dear Kent and Shan, thank you very much for your fantastic work. I started watching your videos about two years ago. Ever since I enjoy your videos every time. I'm always looking forward to watch the new video. I love your dances Kent. It is so good to see you honoring your country and the women and men who is makeing it strong and proud. I'm living in Hungary and the way you are talking english feels so good to me, that I always want to be there and just hear you telling stories... I love your good attitude to life and positive energies that you are giving to your watchers. I wish you all the best! Very good health, luck and succes in anything and everything you start or keep doing!!!
oh yea, gonna try these for certain !! May 2023 bring you, Shannon, Beag, Duke, Sadie & the Maj nothing but great health, happiness and love. God Bless
I really like Kent Rollins. I love the recipes, the cowboy charm, the humour, and the old fashion values. Kent would be a great guy to have for a friend.
On Saturday morning, my cousin woke to find her husband had passed away... she's a cancer survivor, so I know she's strong, but I ask that y'all keep her in your prayers during this difficult time. Thank you.
The shells are looking mighty tasty! I seen the episode where you had the rattle snake pop up on the cook site, I thought for sure you would do another video showing people how to cook one up. My wife watches all these survival shows, and they end up having to eat whatever they can find, and snakes end up being on the menu quite often lol Glad you folks and the dogs made it out unharmed.

That looks so darn good! When I make manicotti I put the filling in a large zip lock bag cut the corner out and squeeze the filling into the shells. Thanks Kent for another great recipe.
Once you start watching them you just can't stop. Try their seasoning. They are amazing! The two cookbooks that are out are off the charts! Good read and great recipes. Welcome.
Great tip to stuff the shells: use a big zip-lock bag and put the stuffing in, then cut a hole thats a bit smaller then the shell on one of the bottom ends and you can just squeeze till the shells fill
Kent, I came upon your channel just recently while checking out other cooking videos and my friend, what a god send! Your channel is not only funny and informative, but your recipes, and I've already made a couple, are fantastic. My smoker is coming out this weekend. Thank you and Shannon for what you do and keep cooking and keep dancing...LOL!!
Mr. Rollins, by the comments left by your community of viewers, they are the kind of folks that make great neighbours. They obviously care about God, Family, community and country. Of course, the great cooking is right up there too. God bless y'all in the Great State of Texas and everywhere else. Hello from a patriotic Albertan neighbour up here in a very beat up and tattered, but proud Canada.
I've never heard of these before but I'm sure glad you introduced me. My next shopping trip will include all the ingredients to make these. Can't wait to make them. I hope I can do justice to yours. Bless you and Shan for all the hard work and time y'all put into bringing us cowboy cooking - the most outstanding and delicious food anybody could ever taste.
Mr. Rollins, I want to Thank You Sir personally for all of the great videos you make. It's not just about the food it's about who you are as a person and how you treat people. I love how you thank the veterans and first responders. As a former police officer myself I want to personally Thank You for the amazing content. I know you have so many followers on here and everything, but I hope maybe one day I can shake your hand and say Thank You face to face. There is so much garbage on TH-cam now a days, but your channel is amazing, and I am very grateful to be a subscriber to your channel. Glod Bless You Sir!!!!
I made these last weekend........FANTASTIC......took some to the office and they didn't last and everyone was raving about them. This one's a keeper!!!!
Greetings from Michigan! My family loves your Original seasoning! Thank you Kent, Shan and the ‘Taste Testers for many wonderful years of videos, stories and recipes!
Kent and Shan we love yawl!!!!!!!!!! I'm a retired chef/cook 28 years, I know you don't like to use the term chef. This recipe and technique is amazing. Looking forward to trying this. God Bless. Mike
My oh my what a fantastic recipe. My family will be doing flips after they eat one of these Smoked Shotgun Shells. Have you ever thought of filling a icing bag with this mixture, cutting of the end and filling the shell that way? I am going to try it. My God fill your week with love and blessings.
Oh man these do look good. I would never have put this together. I didn't know the pasta would get soft this way. Wow. This opens up many ideas. Great job brother. God bless all here.
I have made those several times...and they are so good.....one trick I started doing is putting my filling in a Large zip lock bag and use it as a piping bag to help get the mixture into the shell ...cut off a corner pipe it in.......helps a Bunch....LOL and I use those exact orange gloves....they are great
Hi Kent! Hi Shannon! Wavin' over here from NE OK where the red fern and the strawberries grow! These look awesome! Think these will be on the menu this weekend. Keep on dancin! GOD bless.
As an American serviceman living in Italy... I was a bit shocked to see such amazing ingredients being used with boxed pasta instead of fresh pasta... Never had fresh pasta until I moved here. It's worth a try. Quite a difference.
Kent, first I love the cooking show that you and Shannon do!! Comment on ice box. I'm 76 so I've been around a while. When I was very young, some of my family had a wood cabinet, insulated and the ice man would come and deliver big squares of ice. It was placed in the "ice box" and kept things cool enough to prevent spoiling. The ice man might have come every day? I grew up with us having an electric refrigerator. Just sharing. Thanks for this recipe. It looks so good! I'm going to try it. Papa Bob in MO.
Hey Bob, I'm 10 years younger but remember riding to town with momma and getting ice blocks from the icehouse. The blocks would slide down a shute and the iceman would use big tongs to load into the car. c1960s, Duncan, Oklahoma.
I asked, my grandkids what they wanted for dinner today. They said shotgun shells! So I made them! So good. But I boil my shells for 7 minutes, let them cool, then I break out my beef jerky gun , put the round skinny attachment on it and pump up 🆙 those shells like a balloon 🎈 I tell you what you get way more meat inside the shells.! Thank you for your time and videos! 🙏
I enjoy watching channels such as yours where the person is a good christian who truly loves his followers! God bless you cowboy Kent! By the way, I'm gonna have to try this recipe soon!
Use a large ziplock baggie like a icing bag to load that meat mixture into, just snip the corner off to squeeze it into those pasta shells. I use these shells all the time for both cheese and meat mixtures makes the job quick and relatively painless💞 Blessings to you and your lovely wife!
I've cooked these several times and they're amazing One piece of advice when stuffing the pasta shells is to use an icing bag, I find it much quicker and easier... especially when I normally do 30 -40 at a time
I love cooking, I love smoking, I love watching cooking or smoking videos with people showing what they know. Mr. Cowboy Kent Rollins, sir, you definitely know your stuff. You are GENUINE! You are a wonderful human being!
Hey Kent, easy way to fill those shells.. Use a Jerky gun with the round tube. I just made this today, and took me about 5 min to fill all the shells. Super fast.
Kent and Shan, I've been grilling, smoking for 46 years and that is the most incredible dish I've seen! Shotgun shells nice but, how about Southwestern egg rolls or Southwestern cowboy manicotti? Regardless, love your presentation, style and delivery. Put a big ole' smile on this old Air Force veteran's face. Love you and Shan! And Ms. Ruthie and I love your little Victory dance!
@Cowboy Kent, little secret when it comes to filling the shells….If you have a jerky gun. Load it up with your filling and put on the sausage attachment. Set the bottom of the shell on a flat surface(cutting board). While holding the shell to the board to close the bottom off. Insert the nozzle and fill from bottom to the top. Press in the ends a little and done. Will be tightly filled with no air pockets. And, best of all it’s super fast compared to hand filling. Good luck and God bless America
I have made these what works real good is a hand sausage stuffer. Find the horn that fits and just pull the pasta back as you crank the handle. Works awesome. I'm glad you did this video great recipe.
Motivation check.... I have had all the stuff for shotgun shells but kept procrastinating thinking it'd be a pain. Watching the video makes it seem straight forward and easy enough especially with a clear explanation and demonstration. Add a new line to your resume....motivational speaker. I'm giving this a try pronto.
@@ambervereide6612 No, letting them sit in the fridge a few hours with the innards already inside should softer the shells enough that they will be soft after cooking. Oven will do just fine. Good luck.
And Kent and Shan, it’s not a coincidence that your fans are the way they are. Quality people attract quality people.
Thank you so much, and God bless you all
@medicsimmonns80 #Truth sir
I agree, this channel is Amazing.
I most definitely agree with that comment
Agree! 100% 👍
I can hear the real emotion in your voice when you describe the poor man who lost his grandson. They say you can't really know someone well from behind the camera, but I can't help but feel like you're a great person. From a longtime fan, thanks for all the entertainment, delicious recipes, and for providing a very interesting window into the "real" cowboy culture.
I try everyday to better than the day before, Gods grace and blessing help more than anything, we thank you so much for watching
All of ya all. That's all we need to know. ALL.
I whole heartedly agree!
For anyone watching this from my side of the pond in the UK, the Chorizo Kent is using is Mexican Chorizo, not the cured Spanish type. We can't buy it here, but it's easy to make, there are lots of recipes on the Internet.
Yes, very different. Though in the US we love both 😋
I have bought it here in the UK in a Deli..
you have solved a great mystery for me, I saw some cured chorizo at the store the other day and felt very confused 🤣
@@sih1095 that's good if you've been able to find it in a specialist Deli 😊. I normally make my own.
@@keithatkinson7649 I make mine too I buy Boston butt when on sale and grind in up make chorizo and Italian both very easy way better then store bought
God Bless Kent and the rest of the family .

Jerky gun works as well
Why waste a baggie. The man knows more than you will ever want to know
@@carlawilliams7727 .....duhhh - - because a baggie is like, two cents - - and it keeps your hands clean - - and is quicker......any more questions ??
I was wondering if there was a way to squeeze the filling in like that. Thanks!

Your channel is not only funny and informative, but your recipes, and I've already made a couple, are fantastic. My smoker is coming out this weekend. Thank you and Shannon for what you do and keep cooking and keep dancing...LOL!!
Thanks for watching and God bless you and yours
I haven't heard of using pasta in shotgun shells - but these seem like a real good idea. Thanks, Kent and Shannon!
That would be gorgeous stuffed pepper filling!
Yep for sure
Mr. Rollins, by the comments left by your community of viewers, they are the kind of folks that make great neighbours. They obviously care about God, Family, community and country. Of course, the great cooking is right up there too. God bless y'all in the Great State of Texas and everywhere else. Hello from a patriotic Albertan neighbour up here in a very beat up and tattered, but proud Canada.
I've never heard of these before but I'm sure glad you introduced me. My next shopping trip will include all the ingredients to make these. Can't wait to make them. I hope I can do justice to yours. Bless you and Shan for all the hard work and time y'all put into bringing us cowboy cooking - the most outstanding and delicious food anybody could ever taste.
We thank you Linda for watching and God bless you
Mr. Rollins, I want to Thank You Sir personally for all of the great videos you make. It's not just about the food it's about who you are as a person and how you treat people. I love how you thank the veterans and first responders. As a former police officer myself I want to personally Thank You for the amazing content. I know you have so many followers on here and everything, but I hope maybe one day I can shake your hand and say Thank You face to face. There is so much garbage on TH-cam now a days, but your channel is amazing, and I am very grateful to be a subscriber to your channel. Glod Bless You Sir!!!!
We thank you for what you do for others and for watching
Ken gives Smoked Shotgun shells to the people he likes, he gives the Remington Kind to the people who break into his truck
I made these last weekend........FANTASTIC......took some to the office and they didn't last and everyone was raving about them. This one's a keeper!!!!
Greetings from Michigan! My family loves your Original seasoning! Thank you Kent, Shan and the ‘Taste Testers for many wonderful years of videos, stories and recipes!
So glad you are enjoying the seasoning
Kent and Shan we love yawl!!!!!!!!!! I'm a retired chef/cook 28 years, I know you don't like to use the term chef. This recipe and technique is amazing. Looking forward to trying this. God Bless. Mike
Thanks for watching Mike and God bless you
Wow, Kent, that looks delicious! Cookbook ordered. Y'all have a great week! Cheers!
Thanks Tim and hope your well my friend
My oh my what a fantastic recipe. My family will be doing flips after they eat one of these Smoked Shotgun Shells. Have you ever thought of filling a icing bag with this mixture, cutting of the end and filling the shell that way? I am going to try it. My God fill your week with love and blessings.
Oh man these do look good. I would never have put this together. I didn't know the pasta would get soft this way. Wow. This opens up many ideas.
Great job brother.
God bless all here.
You are so welcome and God bless you
Considering what is going on in my life currently, your monologue nearly brought me to tears. Life is precious.
Stay strong and God bless you
@@CowboyKentRollins Thank you Kent. 🙂
Again thanks bud, ur recipes are good but there fun,
I have made those several times...and they are so good.....one trick I started doing is putting my filling in a Large zip lock bag and use it as a piping bag to help get the mixture into the shell ...cut off a corner pipe it in.......helps a Bunch....LOL and I use those exact orange gloves....they are great
Wow....Killing me! Now I Have to Do This! Thanks Kent and Shan !
Hope you enjoy
Hi Kent! Hi Shannon! Wavin' over here from NE OK where the red fern and the strawberries grow! These look awesome! Think these will be on the menu this weekend. Keep on dancin! GOD bless.
Thanks so much and good to hear from another Okie
Not gonna lie, you had me at "smoked shotgun shells." Reminds me of the "BBQ pit boys BBQ potato bombs."
As an American serviceman living in Italy... I was a bit shocked to see such amazing ingredients being used with boxed pasta instead of fresh pasta... Never had fresh pasta until I moved here. It's worth a try. Quite a difference.
Kent, first I love the cooking show that you and Shannon do!! Comment on ice box. I'm 76 so I've been around a while. When I was very young, some of my family had a wood cabinet, insulated and the ice man would come and deliver big squares of ice. It was placed in the "ice box" and kept things cool enough to prevent spoiling. The ice man might have come every day? I grew up with us having an electric refrigerator. Just sharing.
Thanks for this recipe. It looks so good! I'm going to try it. Papa Bob in MO.
Thanks Papa Bob for sharing and God bless you
Hey Bob, I'm 10 years younger but remember riding to town with momma and getting ice blocks from the icehouse. The blocks would slide down a shute and the iceman would use big tongs to load into the car. c1960s, Duncan, Oklahoma.
I asked, my grandkids what they wanted for dinner today. They said shotgun shells! So I made them! So good. But I boil my shells for 7 minutes, let them cool, then I break out my beef jerky gun , put the round skinny attachment on it and pump up 🆙 those shells like a balloon 🎈 I tell you what you get way more meat inside the shells.! Thank you for your time and videos! 🙏
Could you put that mixture in a zip lock bag, cut the corner off the bag and squeeze it into the manicotti shell? Would that make it easier?
Yep or a regular piping bag
I'm a cajun lady from south La. & I have to say that you are a breath of fresh air. 😊👍
We thank you so much for watching
Particularly picky pasta 'pleeples' xD great recipe. My wife and I will have to try this one soon!
Hope you both enjoy
Kent use a piping bag to stuff those shells, may have to adjust hole size because of sausage!!
Kent you are the best and this community is the best ! ❤ thank you for these amazing videos
I enjoy watching channels such as yours where the person is a good christian who truly loves his followers! God bless you cowboy Kent! By the way, I'm gonna have to try this recipe soon!
God bless you and we hope you enjoy
Like packing a wheel bearing!
I can’t wait to make this!
Hope you enjoy
Use a large ziplock baggie like a icing bag to load that meat mixture into, just snip the corner off to squeeze it into those pasta shells. I use these shells all the time for both cheese and meat mixtures makes the job quick and relatively painless💞
Blessings to you and your lovely wife!
And I tip my hat to you as well Mr. Ken
Thanks so much
WOW! A REAL MAN! Old timer like me. Kent, YOU are salt of the earth and quite possibly the last John Wayne. I dub thee, the BBQ Cowboy! LOVE IT!
God bless you cowboy Kent ! You and your recipes are amazing 🤠
Thanks so much and God bless you
I've cooked these several times and they're amazing
One piece of advice when stuffing the pasta shells is to use an icing bag, I find it much quicker and easier... especially when I normally do 30 -40 at a time
Great video! Keep up the great work and God bless! 👍🏻
Thanks Jacob and God bless you
I love cooking, I love smoking, I love watching cooking or smoking videos with people showing what they know. Mr. Cowboy Kent Rollins, sir, you definitely know your stuff. You are GENUINE! You are a wonderful human being!
Thank you so much
I was drinking tea and almost spit it all over my phone when you did the binoculars bit 😂 it took all I had not to laugh
I had not heard that. My heart goes out, as little help as that may be. I love all of you, and wish you nothing but love.
Love yal...and of course y'all's Food!🥰
Hey Kent, easy way to fill those shells.. Use a Jerky gun with the round tube. I just made this today, and took me about 5 min to fill all the shells. Super fast.
Love you Ken! ❤❤
Thanks so much
@@CowboyKentRollins been watching you for years! 🔥
Kent and Shan, I've been grilling, smoking for 46 years and that is the most incredible dish I've seen! Shotgun shells nice but, how about Southwestern egg rolls or Southwestern cowboy manicotti? Regardless, love your presentation, style and delivery. Put a big ole' smile on this old Air Force veteran's face. Love you and Shan! And Ms. Ruthie and I love your little Victory dance!
We thank you Peter for your service and for watching
The easiest way to fill them is to use a PIPING BAG! Or a zip lock bag with the tip cut. It takes seconds to fill 😊
My thoughts exactly.
@Cowboy Kent, little secret when it comes to filling the shells….If you have a jerky gun. Load it up with your filling and put on the sausage attachment. Set the bottom of the shell on a flat surface(cutting board). While holding the shell to the board to close the bottom off. Insert the nozzle and fill from bottom to the top. Press in the ends a little and done. Will be tightly filled with no air pockets. And, best of all it’s super fast compared to hand filling. Good luck and God bless America
So delicious
For sure
I have made these what works real good is a hand sausage stuffer. Find the horn that fits and just pull the pasta back as you crank the handle. Works awesome. I'm glad you did this video great recipe.
Great tip, and thanks for watching
Persnickety pasta peeps
Motivation check....
I have had all the stuff for shotgun shells but kept procrastinating thinking it'd be a pain. Watching the video makes it seem straight forward and easy enough especially with a clear explanation and demonstration. Add a new line to your resume....motivational speaker. I'm giving this a try pronto.
Thanks for watching and we hope you enjoy
That looks so good and tasty, Cowboy Kent! God bless y’all and the fans here following y’all.
Thanks so much
i have a good friend that lives in colorado city tx and i enjoy going out and eating some of that great texas bbq! Keep the videos coming. God bless
Thanks! Will do!
Can you give directions to cook in the oven. Thanks
350 degree F oven for about 1 hour
@@CowboyKentRollins Thank You can't wait to make them! Do I cook the shells first since oven cooking them?
@@ambervereide6612 No, letting them sit in the fridge a few hours with the innards already inside should softer the shells enough that they will be soft after cooking. Oven will do just fine. Good luck.
Yes, it is making my mouth water!
Silly me I thought you always had to boil pasta to cook it?
Where in the US are you? Kind of looks like my neck of the sagebrush.

It's Manicotti, I have a few Italian recipes but I am definitely going to try this, No judgement here, you do you.
