Rest Period?

[krooz]

Hi folks,

Hoping to do a fattie here pretty soon - pizza style probably. Just wondering though - can you foil and rest a fattie in a cooler like you would a butt until chow time? Or would it go soggy or something? Worried that the bacon would be soft if allowed to rest in foil....

Planning for a 4 hour smoke at 230 to give me to allow a little wiggle room.

Thanks

Yes you can rest it like anything else. When I do Pizza Fatties I like to rest so that the cheese can cool and setup a bit.
