Cassie and I have been working on a smokehouse together. She has been very patient with the fact it is taking longer then planned and a couple issues. I had promised her she could make Fatties this visit.

She wanted Beef & Cheesy Mac Fatties:
1# Ground beef flattened in a 1 gallon Ziploc bag
Seasoned with SPOG
BBQ Sauce drizzle
Homemade Cheesy Mac
Yes, even more cheese!!!!!!
2ea Carrots (cut into small pieces)
2ea Ribs of Celery (cut into small pieces)
2ea Medium Onion (julienne)
1ea 12oz can Diced Tomatoes
This pan is going to sit under the fatties to catch the drippings. Then added to a pan with some beef stock (12oz) and a bit of BBQ Sauce (1/2c). Bring to a boil and using an immersion blender I purred it up till smooth...... Sorry no pics of this....
Cassie starting her bacon weave.....
First one ready to go. This one I rolled to show her how. She did the last one and it looked as good if not better than mine....
After about 2hrs in the smoker. I was having issues controlling the temp with the wind and all the holes in the cook chamber from rust. We had to finish in the oven because I did not want to add more fuel and get even more of the nasty creosote on the fatties....
And our dinner was served.........
I am proud of her. She did or was part of every step.......looks like I might have found my partner when I start to compete....
