| Fatty's ready for sauce |
Yesterday I made a smoked fatty wrapped in a bacon weave. A fatty is just another name for a BBQ'd log of breakfast sausage, in this case Jimmy Dean's Spicy Sausage. I smeared the sausage with plain yellow mustard and liberally covered it with my homemade pork rub. I put in the fridge for a few hours to let it think about what I was about about to do to it.
About an hour before I was planning to put it in the smoker I took the sausage out of the fridge and made the bacon weave. It turned out a 5x6 weave covered it perfectly.

| Fatty ready for the smoker |
I put it on the smoker with lump charcoal and hickory and apple wood chunks.

| Smokin'! |
The first picture up above shows the fatty after about three hours. Then it was time to sauce the puppy!
 |
| Saucy! |
I used O'Baby BBQ Sauce. Does anyone know if they're still in business?
The website has a 2013 copyright date and the shop link goes to a dead Etsy page...
Anyway, another 30 minutes or so in the smoker and then the fatty was ready!
And there it is, the finished fatty with an extra drizzle of O'Baby's.
And it was MINE, ALL MINE!
