Fattie

[John Willems]

How much meat can You use making Fatties? 1 lb,2lbs,3 lbs. Does size matter? Is it better to do several 1lb ones? I want to try one on My OTS. I put 2 foil lined bricks on 1 side of Kettle yesterday & used the the Minon Method & Smoked some Country Pork Ribs. They turned out great for the First time cooking them the Minon way. First time for country ribs too. Thanks everyone who posted on Fourm. Learning a lot. Yea Old Dogs can learn New Tricks. John

Depends if you use a bacon weave which is usually 6 slices each way...probably 3 lbs will do it and oh yeah...size matters

This one was 2 lbs. I think that made just the right size

Another consideration is the ratio of a crispy bark to softer inner-meat. With the 1 lbers, you'll have a higher ratio.
