A unique and tasty grilling treat!
Preheat your smoker or grill to 400°F.
Slice each bratwurst open lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Shape each bratwurst into a canoe, creating a cavity for the filling.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, BBQ rub, shredded cheddar cheese, and diced jalapeño. Mix until well combined.
Spoon the cream cheese mixture into the cavity of each bratwurst, filling them generously.
Sprinkle a little more BBQ rub on top of the filled bratwursts.
Add a heavy pinch of shredded cheddar cheese on each.
Top with jalapeño slices if you like an extra kick.
Place the bratwursts on the smoker and cook until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
Once cooked, place each bratwurst in a sausage bun. Drizzle with Sriracha mayo for an extra burst of flavor.
