Afternoon all,
I tried my first fatty today and I must say I'm a little disappointed.
I did a bacon weave, 1.25 lbs of ground beef, some onions, green peppers, shredded cheddar and bbq sauce.
I had my MES 40 going at around 230 for three hours. The bacon didn't look too browned, but I pulled it out anyways and found the bacon wasn't cooked, the cheese wasn't melted and the meat wasn't cooked everywhere.
I did have it placed on a flat aluminum sheet.
Any ideas why it wasn't cooking or what I need to do differently??
I was using the smoker's thermometer and a maverick to monitor temp, though I didn't use the meat probe.
Thanks,
