Popped the Fatty

Junebo · Dec 31, 2011

Hey all, was hoping to get some input on this...
When I check the internal temp on the fatty and then pull the thermometer it the fatty starts gushing fatty juice. Is this good or bad ? I am guessing it would be better if there weren't leaks and all the juice was contained. I may just leave the thermometer in until the whole thing cools from now on. Anyhow, any Brethren input appreciated.

i always stick mine from the top so i figure i'm just releiving the pressure and the sausage will act as a bowel and keep enough juice inside. havn't had a dry one yet.

not sure you can dry a fatty out

Only way to dry out a fattie is to over cook it.

I usually use a meat probe and just leave it in or wait a couple hours till I know it's done. Kinda hard to go wrong with a fattie. It will start to darken up and shrink a little bit when it's done.
