Hi guys,

After I found out about the Bacon Explosion last year, I've been wanting to smoke one. With a little research, I found this site and found out about the real fatties. I tried my first one Saturday. Lemme just say that this thing is heaven on Earth!

I used 1 lb of thick cut bacon for the lattice (big thanks to my fiancée for weaving this; i tried and failed) and 1 lb each of mild and hot breakfast sausage. It was filled with sautéed green peppers, onions, mushrooms, and some colby jack cheese.

It went on my ECB for just under 3 hours using mesquite chunks. The end result was just amazing, and I have plans for future fatties already!

I have done fatties before but my bacon weave stunk, It looks like you did an excellent job, and your fiance did good also.

Thanks everyone. The bacon weave was all her. I started and she took over shortly. I was making a mess of it. The fatty was delicious. I wished I'd made a couple... There's sure to be more in coming weeks.
 
Be careful- they are addicting. Ive been smoking fatties every weekend for the last 2 months since I first saw them on here. I still havent done a weave that looked that pretty.
 
I just bumped my head on the monitor, thought it was dinner! Nice job and nice smoke ring, ya sure this is your first?
 
Dude, You Hit The Ground Running!
Points for a Great Looking Fatty
