No, this isn't the next activity at the Shack Herf. This is something that DARRELL got me thinking about.
We have such well developed specialty threads here at the Asylum, but I did not want to clog up
"What's in Your Smoker?" with a whole fattie exploration.

OK, you know you buy some sausage and roll it out on some wax paper in a pan into roughly the shape
of a football field. Then you pile all kinds of crap in the middle and roll it up. Bacon wrap or weave
optional. Pop it in the oven or your smoker and wait, drink and smoke. When the bacon is done,
the fattie is done.
SURE, some wu$$ies use a temp probe. I call that a cheese leak. Here is a thread showing a bunch of
entries into a contest at another web forum.
Not trying to promote another board, just a good activity. Make em, photograph em, share em.

Wow... this is like a whole sub-culture... I'd never be able to eat one, but it is very interesting!

I will have to give it a shot this weekend or so. I got an idea for something.

People it is just Advanced Meat Loaf. And it is good. :-)

I really loved the 'bacon explosion' at Shack last year. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Had to take a Lipitor and an antacid after reading this.....LOL

I'm glad I make you think of having a fatty, Brad. :-)
[Reply]

I like to roll the bacon on as opposed to the weave, but it is amazing either way.
[Reply]

I am really anxious to try making one of these -- my wife will probably kill me :-)
[Reply]

This...will...change...my...life....
[Reply]

If she doesn't your clogged arteries will.

I just got everything to put this together tomorrow. It will either be great or gross but I will post up pics when it is all done.

Why not?

If it's a kosher thing, just use turkey or chicken sausage. If you can'f find it in bulk, just buy a pack or two of cased turkey/chicken sausage and cut the casings open lengthwise with a razor blade or kitchen shears and scoop out the sausage.

Or you could just be a bad Jew like me and the master of the grill himself, Steven Raichlen, and not worry about keeping kosher.
