Chorizo & Egg Breakfast Fattie QVIEW

[thunderdome]

A co-worker gave me a good sized golden barrel cactus and his only request was a Fattie in exchange.

I asked what he wanted in it, and he just said “surprise me”. So I went with a chorizo, egg, potato, cheese, and ham. My dad let me use his Fattie Piston for it’s debut trial. Since I was goin to the trouble, I decided to make myself one as well. The following scenes took place between 5 pm – 8 pm last Saturday.

Smoker: UDS
Temps: 240-260
Fuel: Kingsford Competition w/ Apple Wood Chunks (70/30)
Time: 3 hours


Mrs. TD cooking up the Chorizo and hash browns




Used some store bought diced ham for this one



With the eggs mixed in



Here’s the fattie piston my Dad made (Craiger)



Flattened out the O.G. Bob Evans and put in the freezer for 20 mins to stiffen up a bit, then sliced the bag up the sides



Laid out some cheese, and used the piston full of the goods to lay on top. Worked like a charm



Rolled up a fatty



Bacon weave #1



Bacon Weave #2
