I'd still be all over it! We're most of the olives in one log over the other?
Not sure if it was Hoity Toit or Nepas, but one of them showed how they did it.
Both logs had olives just not consistently through out.
Smoke away!!!

The one in the center, it's headed for Texas, right?
I think I ate that package already!
Crap, again? We gotta work on this...
Seriously, excellent work on all of this!
Thank you Disco! Just trying to keep up with you and the other smoke masters!
What in incredible thread and smoke. A new dish, great qview, lots of fun. Bravo!
Points for setting the bar higher.

Not a hard thing to make. Just takes time. Follow this thread and the bacon making thread and you'll be set!
I showed a picture of the stuffed bacon and my wife kinda just dropped her jaw and said "your going to learn to make that right"...yes ... yes I am
Thank you! I considered stitching it up, but I couldn't find my trussing needle. The mortadella pairs well with it!
Real nice job with that DS. Thought it's been a while, I've had Schweinebauch, or more appropriately, Gefuellte Schweinebauch, several times though I never had it mated with mortadella. Sounds like an excellent match, however. I've never attempted to make it myself, but your thread just may inspire me to do so.
I can't speak for the rest of the country, but it's a popular dish in restaurants and homes in Southwest Germany. Although you can stuff the belly with essentially anything that appeals to you, the most common version I've encountered is a belly stuffed with ground meat (typically veal), smoked ham chunks, chopped onion, spices, and herbs, predominately marjoram. Another big mover, especially around the Holidays, is stuffed with sauerkraut, and diced fruit such as pear, apple, etc.
Though a few leave it open as you did, it's typically stitched closed then braised over low heat for a few hours followed by a high heat sear to crisp it up. Your choice to smoke it seems ideal.
The mortadella from the chubs looks pretty darn good also.
Very nice job on all fronts. Congrats.
