Ok, I'm going to try and get in on this. These are MOINKS on a budget as you can see. The meatballs are all beef. THe bacon is real to. Like a moron, In a fit of watering mouth, I ripped off the label before Pr0n.
These little jewels turned out great! A tad salty due to the salt in the bacon and salt in the rub that I used to much of BUT they were still great for my first try.
That is what they call a lumber jack. A lumber jack is basically a corn dog. The outside is a maple syrup pancake and the inside is a sausage link. They come on a stick just like corn dogs. I removed the stick rolled it all up, added rub and went for it and I'm gonna tell ya, the Tennessee Pride Mild sausage and that lumberjack with the nice hint of rub ...... Yeah lol it was good.
I get the lumberjacks at Sam's Club along with the TN Pride sausage. It comes in 3 rolls for $7. The lumberjacks are like 8 or 9$ I suppose. Don't recall how many to a box. Give it a try if you go to Sams. It was well worth it.
WE are going to smoke several fattys this coming weekend for breakfast. We are gonna slice the lumberjack fattys and put them in between nice fresh butter milk biscuits.
Started with 2 lb of USDA Choice ground chuck and 12 oz of uncured, smoked bacon. Since this was a special occasion for certification, opted to make my own meatballs. Mixed in chopped celery and purple onion in addition to some panko, oatmeal, and an egg to make it all stick together.
Applied the bacon :icon_smile_tongue:
Applied the smoke
The results after basting with maple syrup.
I was going to do a few with rub and some with BBQ sauce, but ran out of time and just went with the syrup glaze.
My entry and first try. I used ground beef loaded with seasoning and a tub of feta cheese, Balled them up and bacon wrapped. Smoked for 3 hours on the webber kettle. Finished with some jack Daniels BBQ
