I had some leftover jambalaya so, of course, I had to make a fatty with it. The bacon "micro-weave" was an idea I had to split the bacon length-wise so I had to weave double the strips. I am not sure the extra 15 minutes was worth it but I thought it did look nice.

As you all know, it is against the law to make a fatty without cheese so I used Muenster slices to "assist" the jambalaya. I also used Pitmaster Choice pellets for smoke in my AMNPS because I had a lot of it for some reason.

This is my second, and much smarter, jambalaya fatty. The first one I made I made up each jambalaya component separately...it was way too labor intensive. To make this work, I tilted the storage container at an angle so as not to get the jambalaya juices.

Aside from the bacon weave experiment, this fatty went together pretty quickly. It was certainly delicious and I will make it again...every time we have leftover jambalaya.

This Eddie looks amazing ... point worthy material for sure ... points from me ..... :cool:
 
Looks fantastic! Not smoked, but have you ever made "collard rolls"? Same as cabbage rolls, but using collards stuffed with jambalaya or dirty rice and cooked in a spicy Creole sauce.

I have not...but thanks for the idea! I still have leftover jambalaya...
 
Nice looking fatty Eddie, points for taking the time to slice the bacon length-wise.
