Had one rack of ribs left, so I got it ready to do with the fatty Mama wanted.

Don't know what happened to the "before" pics, but here's the "during" and "after"...

Ribs and trimmins flipped after one hour.


2 hours in, trimmngs are ready to snack on


After the foil


And after the knife. Don't know that I did too much different than I normally do, but these were the most tender ribs I have ever done. Just putting pressure on the knife to slice, three of bigger bones just squirted out.


Fatty Q-view on coming up next.
 
Now for the fatty...

Fatty Fixins:










Layered up, starting the roll


Rolled up...


Wrapped in bacon...


165 internal...


Mama's happy!

Wow! Perfect looking ribs and that fatty looks amazing! I just got my first smoker and I'm dying to clog my arteries with a fatty like that!!! I haven't looked around too much, but so far I don't see a recipe or any info on smoking a fatty. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
 
Its pretty easy, but a mild pain in the butt figgerin out how to roll the thing. You'll get different methods, but here's how I do it. Lay out plastic wrap and spray it with pam. I use the press n seal kind, a little easier than the cling wrap. Smash out the sausage with your hands till you get a good square about 3/8" to 1/2" thick. Fill it with whatever you like - you'll find MANY stuffing combinations in here. Leave a little room on all 4 ends when dropping the filling on. Someone in the forum said this - get the sausage real cold - not frozen - before trying to roll it. I just stick it in the fridge for about 1/2 hour after laying out the filling. To roll it, I use the plastic to lift the front edge and fold it over. Then just roll it on up using the plastic to keep it from sticking to your hands. Smash the trail edge into the roll to seal it up and do the ends however you can to get it sealed up. Smoke it aat 225 - 250 till the center gets to 165, takes about 2 hours, but remember to go by temp, not time! Hope this helps and good luck!
 
Oh yeah, the bacon. I just lay out strips evenly, put the fatty in the middle, bring up both ends. Roll it over and place in the smoker with the loose ends of the bacon down.
 
Aaah thanks for the info! I can't wait to try one!!! On one hand I'm disappointed that I won't get to do it this weekend, but on the other hand, I'll be at the lake, so it's all good :) I guess I need to pick up a smoker for down there too, huh?
 
That's my exact thinking for Monday! I had the wife nab a couple of rolls from the store yesterday for a fatty, but I was thinking about saving a little bit to try out some ABTs too! I can already tell this isn't going to end well for me :)
