Rainy here in Central TX today. But I'm off, and need to get some stuff outta the freezer.

I remembered a post a while back about using bratwurst sausage in a fattie, remembered that I had several packs in the freezer that I bought at a reduced price at work since they were about to expire in date, then remembered that I had beer in the fridge along with all the needed fixings for an experimental fattie.

So...

De-cased the brats


Added about a cup of ground beef to make it stretch across the whole pan, yet be thick enough


Filling is cream cheese, chedder, and a mexican blend cheese... all of which needed to be used up.


Had a can of Chipotle's on hand...in they went


Had a couple Japs in the fridge, chopped them and in they went.


Behold! The ugliest fattie ever rolled!



Hope this baby turns out ok. It was a bit loose, and hard to transfer from the pan to the pit. Hopefully if I leave it be for the first hour or so, It'll set up enough for me to make room for the burgers.

I guess time will tell.

More pics to come.
 
Looks good, can't wait to see the finished product.

Raining here in Bryan also, but I ain't complaining we need it BAD so let it rain
 
Looks awesome to me. I dont think I have ever seen an "UGLY" fattie. They are way to delicious to be talked about like that.

Made a couple of small hamburger patties. Almost 4 pounds in all. Bottom right has some chipotle's and adobo mixed in, just for kicks.


Fattie after about 1 1/2 hours and a couple gentle turns. No leaks yet. Burgers joining the party.


This baby is holding up alot better than I thought it would. By the way, the temp is about 260-280 with mesquite.
 
We really need to see them when they're done! Sure looks good so far.

Thanks for the Qview.
 
Man, you combine fresh japs and smoked japs in adobo along with cheese into a FATTY, and you're in for a hot and tasy treat. Save me a slice... or two.
