So last night I made my first fattie, which was the 2nd time I used my new grill as a smoker with the firebox. Thanks to FMCowboy who's recipe I pretty much copied. I used just plain ground pork. Didn't put any rub on the meat. Used pepperonis (and used the idea to nuke them for 20 seconds in the microwave on a paper towel to cook out some of the grease). I also used a mix of fresh mushroom, onion, green pepper, and some minced garlic and sauted it on the stove. I then put some mozzerella cheese in there (forgot to take a pic of that step)
I kept the temp at 225-250 and cooked it for 2.5 hours. The internal temp was about 170-175 when I pulled it off. It tasted really good. I did not think it was dry. I couldn't really taste the pepperonis. I think I should have put more in. I'm gonna make a couple more Saturday morning (probably try some new ingredients) along with some ABT's. My pepper plants (banana & jalepeno) are about to fall over they have so many peppers on them!
