You're too kind.
Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. Those who can't teach, write. Those who can't write, edit. Those who can't edit, make photo tutorials based on other people's foundational work. (Says the education major turned book editor turned minister/smoking guru wannabe.)
No, no, no... YOU da man, Capt Dan.

ARRRGH! Thanks maytee! I'd take a bow, but me parrot would fall to thee deck, and me hook gets stuck in me knee everytime!
You took the bull by the horns Buckster, what I wanted to do, but hadn't made time for, you went ahead and did. and ya did real good with it. I would add one thing, and not to change, detract or highjack your thread. but when you finally are gonna slide the fatty onto the plastic wrap, IF YOU WANT BACON on the outside, just lay it out ahead of time on the plastic, and rool the fatty over it. When ya cinch down the plastic by the ends, and twist er up, the bacon will cinch up tight too. The more yas twirl, the fatter it gets(and shorter). The pressure from the artificial casing(saran wrap) helps seal the seam nicely too. The bacon helps to keep the whole thing from splitting open. The 10-15 minute chill, helps to firm it up for the "transfer" to the grate.
I stated that for the simplification factor, and to help the newer folks who have never experienced smokin da fatty!

Thank you again for the post. I used your post to try to help me out with rolling my first fatty last night. Going on the grill now. I will post with Q-View later.
Hang in there guys! It takes a little technique, and that takes practice! Don't let a less than perfect first effort turn you off of these tasty treats!
if it was the same title of the thread, he'd get a lot of hits.....even though it would probably be for the wrong reason

Thanks for the pics. I was using wax paper, but it can sometime dampen and stick to the paper. I like the idea of plastic wrap.
