haven't made a fattie in a while, so i did.

1 pound Italian sausage, 1 pound ground sirloin

store bought bacon

sautéed green onions and minced garlic pasted on meat

sharp cheddar cheese ala Wisconsin

topped with fried store bought bacon

seasoned the bacon weave

rolled the pork/beef fattie patty into a log​

dropped the fattie on the weave​

wrapped the bacon around the fattie log

tossed it on the Weber Summit charcoal cooker with hickory wood added for smoke.​

85 minutes later, it was cooked good​

sliced....​

...and served​

Thanks for swinging by!

That looks awesome Jim. I haven’t made a fattie in a long time. I need to rectify that.

Click to expand...

well, I tend to slice my bacon much thicker than the high quality low life bacon available at grocers nation-wide... however, some of that low-life bacon is pretty darned good, i.e., Farmland, ….ok, Farmland.

and that's what a used.

I think.

anyway, thicker bacon doesn't conform to the curves required for this application.

I think.
