I threw a HERFACUE this weekend for our cigar club and introduced some guys to the magic of fatties. For those that don't know, a 'herf' is when 2 or more cigar smokers get together to smoke cigars and socialize. It only takes 2 for a herf but I've had them with as many as 60 or more - good times for sure. So, you put a herf and a barbecue together and you have a HERFACUE!
I got up at the butt-crack of dawn (NOT part of my normal routine) and got the smoker going. I did 2 fatties, some ribs and some smoked sausages. One of the fatties was Mexican style - stuffed with Chorizo, jalapenos and cheddar and the other was Hawaiian - stuffed with brown sugar ham, pineapple and mozzarella then I took the pineapple juice and mixed it with brown sugar to make a basting sauce. Funny how things work out as I thought the Mexican one would be the favorite but everyone went crazy for the Hawaiian one - by far my favorite of the ones I've made or had.
OK, I'll shut up now and share some pics!
