Well we got the rare snow "storm" here over night. Wound up with about 2", but you would think it's the blizzard of the century if you watched the TV and all the closings. I was all ready to relax and enjoy the day off relaxing with family and friends and doing some "redneck sledding". So last night when I asked the fan what they wanted for breakfast they said "fatties". I got excited at the possibility of smoking in conditions I have never done before and gaining that experience. Who knows what year it will happen again.
What my WSM looked like when I lit my chimney. Using an old Vermont Casting gasser to light fire and as a wind block, 30 to 40 MPH gusts.
What the weather is like as I am waiting for the WSM to settle in at it's temp.
Inspired by the breakfast fatty someone posted the other day, one is stuffed with tater tots, egg, cheese and of course in the bacon blanket of love. No, this is not the bacon I made. Cut my pieces too short and thick for this. It is homemade maple breakfast sausage. The second fatty was attempted the same but did not hold together at all. Stuffed too fat, so I just formed it back into a log with everything but the tots and wrapped with the few pieces of bacon left.
View of the snow covered hood off the back deck. Thanks for looking.

currently around -8 right now with 2' plus of snow. Another 5"-8" predicted through tomorrow. We missed the Big Lake lake effect it went straight south this time..so South Bend area got that. Keep smokin' in the cold n snow is the best time.
