Default Fatty questions

Hi... Never even heard of a Fatty before I found this site. What a sheltered life I've lead to now...

I understand that a fatty is done when the internal temp hits 165 (ish). On a KISS fatty, that's pretty straight forward. But, thinking too hard as I often do, when you do a stuffed fatty (I'm thinking scrambled eggs and cheese for a breakfast fatty) do I want to keep the probe in the sausage shell, or right down the middle anyway?

Thanks!

keep it in the sausage in the middle or at least the deepest part of the fatty =).

Cheese and, maybe, onions or peppers should be cool. Eggs might be a little tricky. Raw eggs + low temps could = trouble. I would cook the eggs on the side, slice the fattie up and put on a toasted english muffin or something like that. Just my opinion. Half the fun is trying new stuff.

Also, if you make plain unstuffed fatties, try the 3-2-1 method and don't worry about temps. Gives them a whole different texture and a ton of extra flavor.

Definitely pre-scramble the eggs. And pre-brown hash brown potatoes. Then roll em up in the fattie.

But this might be put on hold for a while yet. Having trouble getting a workable lid solution for my UDS...
