How to Stuff Crescent Rolls

Once you have your ingredients ready to go, it’s time to start stuffing! Follow these simple tips for stuffing your crescent rolls with BBQ filling:

1. Keep the stuffing at the end of the dough. After unrolling your triangles, make sure to keep all your stuffing ingredients on wide end of the triangle. This will help keep all the BBQ stuffing contained within the roll.

2. Wrap the dough around the stuffing. Once you add the stuffing ingredients, carefully lift up the dough and wrap the remaining dough around the stuffing. This will help keep the stuffing from falling out as you try to roll the crescent roll up.

3. Brush with butter. Before you bake your crescent rolls, brush them with butter to get a golden brown crust. You can add even more BBQ flavor to your snacks with the help of a sprinkling of barbeque seasoning on the top of each roll before you put them in the oven.
