Watching Joey Chesnut cram 72 hotdogs down his gullet on the 4th of July I was inspired to bring back a classic. This is the first fattie I entered into competition 5 years ago. It's a simple coney dog fattie and I can't think of any fattie that's more American!

Burger rolled out on the bacon weave and slathered with coney chili.

Onion and mustard layer.

Koegel viennas added.

Chili dog meat roll.

Weaved up and ready for the smoker.

Smoked at 275 for a few hours and ready for slicing.

Nice sliced pic.

SMF I give you the newly renamed "Chesnut Fattie"!

God bless America!
 
Thank you gentlemen. Always a favorite with my friends. Funny thing is it didn't go over to well with the judges at the fattie contest 5 years ago so I never entered it again. Maybe I'll enter it in this years contest and hope for better pallets. Lol
 
Thank you. I know the coney isn't as big everywhere as it is here in Michigan but it's pretty iconic. And a fitting tribute to JC's feast in my book.

If you haven't tried a coney fattie I'd suggest it. One of my favorites.
 
I've had my smoker 3 weeks now and have been on this forum about the same amount of time. I'm addicted and have seen some amazing smokes, but I think this one looks the most appetizing! Awesome looking fatty!
 
Thanks guys I appreciate it. If you like coneys this fattie is top notch. Bonus is the wife hates them so all those delicious calories were mine! Lol!
