Rainy here in Central TX today. But I'm off, and need to get some stuff outta the freezer.
I remembered a post a while back about using bratwurst sausage in a fattie, remembered that I had several packs in the freezer that I bought at a reduced price at work since they were about to expire in date, then remembered that I had beer in the fridge along with all the needed fixings for an experimental fattie.
So...
De-cased the brats
Added about a cup of ground beef to make it stretch across the whole pan, yet be thick enough
Filling is cream cheese, chedder, and a mexican blend cheese... all of which needed to be used up.
Had a can of Chipotle's on hand...in they went
Had a couple Japs in the fridge, chopped them and in they went.
Behold! The ugliest fattie ever rolled!
Hope this baby turns out ok. It was a bit loose, and hard to transfer from the pan to the pit. Hopefully if I leave it be for the first hour or so, It'll set up enough for me to make room for the burgers.
I guess time will tell.
More pics to come.
