I smoked a BIG FATTY for breakfast this morning!!!

Sausage Fatty that is!!!

 

I got this idea from the forum for my electric smoker and had to give it a try. I took a pound of venison sausage and rolled it out in a zip lock bag. Once you have the sausage all smoothed out cut the 2 sides of the bag and fold it off to the side. Next lay out all the fixings you want in the sausage, I went with ham, cheese, and a few home fries. I was going to put scrambled eggs in it but I prepared this late at night and didn't feel like cooking the eggs. You can stuff it with whatever you like Once you have all your fixings in it roll it up so everything with stay inside. Then I took 12-14 slices of bacon and laid them flat on the other slide of the zip lock bag. Weave the bacon strips together so it with stay on the sausage better. (there are a bunch of videos on you tube to show you how). Then take your sausage and roll it over the bacon so it covers the sausage roll. The bacon was a little short from going all the way around the sausage but it held fine and I didn't use any toothpicks. I left it in the fridge overnight. I woke up at 6 this morning to get it in the smoker because I had to be to work at 8. After about an hour and a half I took my smoker to work and cooked it until it was done. I cooked it at 225 degrees for 3 hours total until the internal temp was 160 degrees. I used 2 ounces of apple wood chips. Here's what it looked like. It was incredible!!

Give it a try sometime.

Almost looks too good to eat!

Nice job on the bacon weave and cool technique to roll the sausage.

I'd probably still be taking pictures of that creation tomorrow,lol

You took your smoker to work?

Yes, I took my smoker to work. I am a fireman so we are lucky enough to have a full kitchen in the firehouse and a gas grill out back. I just set it up outside by the grill. We don't cook meals everyday but overt the years "Sunday Breakfast" has become the meal that is made on a regular basis. Everyone takes a turn buying and cooking breakfast for their shift. As long as the bells aren't ringing and we aren't busy doing something else we all eat breakfast together. It's pretty much our lunch break for the day. I like to try to outdo the other guys when it comes to cooking. When I make breakfast you don't need to eat lunch that day!!!

When we are cooking in the kitchen or on the grill we always shut everything off when the bells ring and we go out on calls. Years ago, (back in the 70's) one of the guys left the stove on and there was a small fire in the firehouse!!! Lol. I have heard rumor another fire dept nearby had a small mishap with a turkey fryer a few years back! Believe me if you were involved in a mishap like these you would get your chops busted constantly for the rest of your career. If the bells started ringing while my smoker was still on I would have sprinted out back to unplug it first!
