I could see how someone might not love a fatty. I think that there is some degree of novelty at play. After all, it is a pretty crazy concept. I did eat mine on a biscuit and, in my opinion, serving it that way was much better than just eating a slice by itself.
Thanks for the kind words guys. I enjoyed this a lot. I found that the thick cut bacon was really easy to weave since it held to together fairly well. I did crisp it up in the oven for a few minutes while those biscuits were cooking.
I only had 5 friends over and had cooked about 11 lbs of...
A little update:
About to take it off as it is reaching ~205* so it can rest for 2 hours. I made a fatty and made a thread for it here:

Here is a shot about halfway through the smoke:
This is once I put the fatty on (current):

First smoke on the new BB GOSM so I decided to try a fatty for the first time.
I started a separate thread for the butt over here:

I used 2lbs of JD with a pound of thick cut bacon. Stuffed with chopped yellow onion, green peppers...
I literally just started my first smoke on my BB GOSM and so far white smoke has not been a problem at all. I'm using a mixture of chips and chunks and as long as I am not too aggressive with the "throttle" I can hit TBS really easily. You'll love this smoker, so easy to use. Let me put in a...
Ron, that seems like a really good idea, I will try it next time -- just read your response after I put the butt on the bottom rack.
Got up early and dusted it again with some rub and got her going. I was surprised at how much of the rub soaked into the butt overnight. There's nothing...
Yeah, you should be able to talk to your local bass pro and they will have one sent to the store -- probably more careful shipping than to your house -- and you will save the $45 bucks on freight.
Good Luck.
Got it at the Bass Pro in Charlotte. You can get it online if there isn't a bass pro near you. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/st...009000_325-9-1
Not sure if you can get this exact model anywhere else.
Posted a thread over in the Pork Forum chronicling the first smoke...
Thanks guys.
I'm going to try to keep the smoker as close to 225* as I can. The plan right now is to rub it again in the morning and then smoke it for 2 hours. Then start spraying every hour with a 3:1 apple juice/vinegar mixture. I'll cut the smoke around 140* and foil at 165* with a little...
Going to smoke my first piece of meat tomorrow on my new BB GOSM. I decided to go with a butt since it is a fairly forgiving piece of meat and I've cooked them with success before on other smokers and in the oven.
Picked up a 7.8lb butt at the store, washed it off and rubbed it down with...
Thanks guys. I think I'm going to order the one from the cover store. I will probably place the smoker on top of a few pieces of slate or other tile to protect the deck from anything that may drip out. I'm not too worried about the heat though.

Just got her this afternoon. Spent about about 45 minutes putting it together and took it outside. Spayed the inside with a generous helping of PAM and fired it up to season the inside. Been playing with the burner control and the dampers to get a better sense of what combinations will create...
Hemi, in the CH area so not that far away.
The GOSM is arriving on Tuesday so I am already planning the first smoke for the upcoming weekend when I have some spare time.
Thanks for the welcome.
