I wish I could take credit for the plastic wrap but I got the idea from this link on rolling a fattie

As far as the wireless thermometer, this is my first time to use it so I will let you know.

If that's your first one, then you're lookin' good. Getting them to roll is the toughest part IMHO.

Lookin' forward to the finished pics.

Well here it is after 3 hours. I have to say not bad for my first attempt. I had one little blowout on the top but nothing came out of it. I think a little less cheese next time and more of everything else. The other problem is it wanted to fall apart when I cut it. Don't know if this is normal or not.

You're the Man; got those fatties right the first time it looks. What kind of cheese did you use? Did you wait at least and hour to let the meat rest and firm up before cutting? I didn't the first time but it worked out anyway. I also like to mix the sausage and some ground beef. I can't seem to make two of the same kind so far; I want to experiment and try new stuffings. The adding of jalapenos' worked out really swell also. I drink more milk now. Happy Smoke Rings from Sedalia, MO. Rich
