For those that dont know, a hog maw(as I grew up with it) is a hog stomach stuffed with potatoes, onions and sausage then cooked (baked, pressure cooked, or smoked as I did it last time). It's a very simple, but tasty meal. I decided to try my hand at a hog maw fatty as my first attempt. decided to pre-cook the diced potatoes and onions, then stuff into the fatty. We made our own fresh sausage as well. Onto the Q-view...
I did 2 hog maw, and one ABT fatty. Figued there have been a hundred ABT fatties documented so I didn't bother. The taste was good. Pre-cooking the potatoes and onion was a good call, they were tender and delicious. I will say that the bacon definitely overpowered everything else. Making a fatty definitely requires some good flavor balance so the bacon doesn't steal the show. Although, thats not really a bad thing!
