I wanted to do something like this for the Fatty Throwdown before I got called away to work for 3 weeks... But since I've been off, this has been a better time for it.

This fatty consists of bacon, ground pork, sharp cheddar cheese and pulled pork chili from my Hawg Heaven Pork Butt smoke.

This is the first time I've done a fatty that wasn't of the breakfast variety. I was little worried when rolling it that the filling was too soft and I was going to open the WSM to chili being everywhere, but that wasn't the case. This turned out amazing. Smoked in my WSM with apple chunks.

Served with Ms. Duke's homemade cornbread mini loaf.

Thanks! That smoke ring gave me tingly feelings when I saw it after the first slice. Never seen that on my fatties before

Oh my! That looks fantabulous! Great idea with the chili.

I'm sure it went perfectly with some of that cornbread!

Thanks fellas,

One thing I'd change if I were to do this again is to shred the cheese so it's more evenly distributed.  Also make sure I have some sour cream in the fridge!!

For the love of smoke!!! Nicely done, brother. That does look great, and ditto on a hyper-active smoke ring. I haven't made a fatty for years, but with a nice burning fire you can get a decent ring in them. I did mine with a pretty thin sausage layer and loaded with filling to the point that they are scary fragile to handle when raw without a bacon wrap...4 lbs was a small one for me, and seems like 6lbs the norm...had 5 kids in the house at the that time...so it was go big or go home...LOL!!!

How did I miss this, anyway??? Oh, yeah, been a busy couple of days here. But, I knew I shouldn't have looked, especially this late at night...and just finishing dinner a little while ago. Time to find something to put me into a food coma before I try to duplicate your fatty...oh, wait, I have PP in the freezer, bacon, shredded cheddar, AND sour cream...some so-so canned red chili with beans...wait, does that count? BTW, is there such a thing as really good canned chili???...anyway, not sure on the chubs of sausage. Damn, that's doubtful on the sausage. Just checked...ground elk (very lean), ground beef (too lean)...awe, steaming bovine pies!!! No sausage. OK, scratch that idea...gonna have to wait on this one.

I'm still heading off to the fridge, though!!!
