You are in for a treat but you
have to do some work first.
Start with cleaning the seeds
out of the peppers. Slice the
bell pepper into 3" slices.
Slice the Jalapenos in half.
Place these into the smoker @
180 degrees.
Clean and slice the chicken
breasts into strips. Lightly
season the strips with Jack's
Old South Hickory rub. Once
rubbed down, place the chicken
into the smoker with the
peppers. Cook until chicken has
browned.
While peppers are smoking. mix 3
lbs. of maple sausage with 2
cloves chopped garlic and 1
teaspoon McCormick's Smokey
Maple seasoning. Mix well the
divide the sausage in two. Form
two balls and place each one
into a 1 Gallon Ziploc bag.
Press down and work the sausage
to the sides and top of the bag.
Release any air and zip shut.
Continue until you have formed a
symmetric flat sausage square.
Do this to both sausage balls.
Once the chicken and peppers are
out of the smoker place them
aside for now. Melt 2 tbsp
butter in a bowl or cup. Add
about 1/2 cup or less of Franks
Red hot sauce and stir until
mixed. Mop the chicken strips
with the buffalo sauce (Frank's
and butter).
Open the Ziploc bags containing
the sausage. Using a pair of
clean scissors, cut along both
sides and fold back the top
plastic flap exposing the
sausage. Mop a square out of the
center of the sausage square.
Leave a 1 1/2 inch border so the
sausage adheres to the opposite
side when rolled up. Sprinkle a
nice layer of Mozzarella cheese
over the sausage. Now add the
chicken strips, shallots,
peppers and another thin layer
of cheese. Add a couple
Pepperjack cheese sticks.
Sprinkle on some chopped Pecans.
Once the filing is in place grab
each side of the bag and pull
the sausage up and around
sealing the top. You are now
rolling a fatty! :-)
Close shut the seem and ends.
Mop the top with the Buffalo
sauce and then sprinkle on some
Jack's Old South Hickory rub.
Make sure you get it on the
sides and bottom as well.
Roll the Fatty's on to a baking
sheet and transfer them to the
grate in your smoker. Be careful
not to rupture the outer sausage
layer. You want to keep all the
goodness inside.
Smoke @ 230 degrees until the
internal temperature is 175
degrees. This usually take 2.5
to 3 hours. Once the desired
temperature has been reached,
remove the fatty's from the
smoker. Let then stand for 30
minutes.
Slice and serve with a pan of
cornbread or biscuits with real
butter and hot raspberry jelly.
Oh Yeah!
