- In a mixing bowl combine cream cheese, sour cream, Pit Boss Smoked Salt & Pepper Rub, and scallions.
- Use a hand mixer to blend well, then fold in grated cheddar-jack. Set aside.
- Cook bratwurst on the griddle. Use a metal spatula to chop up sausage into smaller bits and cook until browned.

- Place pickles on a sheet tray. Cut in half, then remove seeds with a small measuring spoon.
- Stuff one half of each pickle with cream cheese mixture and top with crumbled bratwurst.
- Top with the other pickle half, then wrap in bacon.
