My first BACON explosion that is. Got the recipe from here http://blog.bbqaddicts.com/recipes/bacon-explosion/

Started with 1 pound of Jimmy Dean original and put it in a gallon ziploc and pushed it out into an even layer. After it looked as even as possible I put it in the fridge for about 45 minutes to firm back up.

After that I took it out of the fridge and cut away the seams of the ziploc and added a 1.5lb package of bacon I had cooked until crispy on the Blackstone griddle.

I then added a little Simply Marvelous Sweet Seduction and some small drips of Blues Hog original sauce and some shredded cheese. I put it back in the fridge just like this to firm back up.

While it was in the fridge firming up I built the bacon weave on a peace of parchment paper.

I put the bacon weave in the fridge to firm up and took the sausage mat back out.

I went ahead and rolled it up now that it had about 30 minutes to firm back up. I used the ziploc plastic to make it easier.

And back in the fridge to firm up... again.

After another half hour or so. I took it and the bacon weave and married the two.

And covered that in more Sweet Seduction rub

When the Fatty hit 150 I took it inside and put it under the broiler to crisp up the bacon. This is it before the broiler.

Then I basted it with and put it back on the smoker.
