First try at doing this. Been intrigued for some time to try one. Did a Philly Cheese Steak Fattie with moderate success. Only one blowout and I probably caused that with the temp probe.

1 lb of Jimmy Dean Sausage, your choice
1/2 lb Steak
1 lb of Bacon
White Onion
Bell Pepper
American Cheese
Provolone Cheese

Flatten sausage in a 1 gal ziploc bag till it reaches all edges of the baggie. Cook steak, onions and bell pepper to taste and reserve. Cut along side edges of baggie and fold back. Layer ingredients and cheese on top of sausage. Using the Ziploc roll up carefully. I chose to weave the bacon around the Fattie but you can just wrap it as you see fit. Using a piece of cling wrap, wrap up Fattie. Holding the ends of the cling wrap, roll it to help seal the ends and to give it a uniform shape. Cook at 275 deg. till internal temp reaches 160 deg.

Out of 10....I give it an 8. Bound to be good on a biscuit!
 
StovePipe - I used Oscar Meyer brand bacon. I did pop it in the freezer to stiffen it up a little and then lay out the weave before rolling it on the Fattie. Rolling it with the cling wrap probably helped the most. Dunno tho......it was my first so all I can claim is beginners luck!

So did you do it on a rotisserie?

BigAl - no on the rotisserie......there is a temp probe you can see in the photos that looks like a rotisserie rod maybe. Otherwise just low n slow. Heck, I did not even flip it......

I timed it at 1.75 hours at 250-275 degrees to reach 160 degrees internal. Some do not even use a temp probe and just wait till the bacon is done or crispy.....I will probably do the same since it did work out to be about the same time and I did spring a leak around the temp probe.

I've read about these being done with just about anything inside....gravy and biscuits, chicken Alfredo, lasagna, pancakes and even eggs and potatoes. I found'em looking for good camping food that I could prepare ahead of time, vacuum seal and then reheat later in boiling water. I think a Fattie is gonna be perfect for that. I just gotta figure out what I'm gonna try next......I'm thinking a breakfast Fattie.

Pretty good link below that I used to do my research. Check it out!
