let's roll a fatty

yes.  i just said that.  but it is in relation to a recipe.  d found, in his words "an amazing recipe we have to try!"  and try we did.  smoking-meat.com featured this fatty recipe of pork, wrapped in more pork, smoked, and served.  we literally rolled a fatty... of meat, that is.  i did not personally care for the recipe, partially because the 2 hours of preparation it took to just get the heart-attack-waiting-to-happen on the smoker was not returned in deliciousness for me.  d, his parents, and a co-worker thoroughly enjoyed it, however.  i will not go into detail of the recipe since i have linked you to it above, as it is rather labor intensive.  worth a glance if you like sausage and bacon and have some time on your hands...

UPDATE:
We have since tried this recipe again a time or two and while I still don't believe the end result is worth the time invested, it did improve for my tastes.  We did a maple flavored pork and applewood smoked bacon with hash browns inside that was pretty good.  Word to the wise -  fry up your hash browns first instead of throwing them in frozen/thawed.  It was ok, but they were a little soggy in the middle.  A co-worker of mine thought this also sounded amazing (men... they're weird) and tried several combinations of meat and fillings very successfully.  I would say just get creative!
