Couldn't wait for tomorrow when I'm firing up the drum for a seven pound butt. So I whipped up a few fatties to get me by. Tried something new on one of them, how about a dessert fatty? I started with maple JD, added chopped apples, cheddar cheese, a big handful of dark brown sugar, one egg and a bit of bread crumbs. The finished product is pretty tasty but cooking was a pain, even after it was taken to almost frozen before cooking, it still wanted to fall through the grate. I ended up rolling it onto some foil til it firmed up. The other two are a mix of some big old fat bacon chunks that I rendered, some sauted onion and garlic, a bit of cheddar chunks, some more jack cheese, lots of my pork rub and a bit of my buddy T's steak dust. Also threw in an egg and some crumbs into these just to hold things together a bit. I've been mixing everything together lately rather than trying to stuff the middle. You never have a blow out and there's a bit of everything in every bite.
