Hello everyone. Kinda new here and have been soaking up the good stuff.
Figured since I was going to smoke a turkey for the first time on Christmas morning I would throw a FATTY on the rack for a snack.
You can venture into turkey land here. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/for...threadid=86292
Now for that Fatty. I saw some blueberry pancake fatness floating around here somewhere and decided I had to give it a whirl. Out comes the bacon for its weave. (no pictures of the bacon weave) then the ol Jimmy Dean original for the wrappings.
Throw some waffles and blueberries in there. Drizzle some maple syrup and your headed for a real treat.
Wrapped up nice and snug for the smoker.
In there with its buddy the turkey. The drippy's from the FATTY made for a nice baste on the bird.
Nicely finished. The cut view could be better... but a lopsided first FATTY is the norm isn't it?
All in all a nice flavor. I am not sure if I like the sweet with my meat... but the wife liked it and it was all eaten before it turned cold.
The next one I am going to do is use some mild pepper bacon, italian sausage. The stuffing will have tomato paste/sauce combo. Olives, onion, garlic, cheese, diced Zuchini and mushrooms.
I can't wait!
Thanks for looking
