BIG Mac Fatty


Here’s a new twist on a big “fatty.”

A Fatty is basically a smoked BBQ meatloaf. And there are a lot of different kinds of them.  See below for two different versions from GrateTV including a breakfast and Italian fatty. A few years ago the Bacon Explosion was a fatty that received a lot of hype for it’s over indulgent qualities.

The Big Mac is the world’s most iconic burger and there’s one trick to emulating that taste that has been embedded in our flavor library since childhood trips to Micky D’s.  The “special” sauce. Starting with a “special” recipe from the BBQ Blueprint for the sauce (it’s also in the free Sauces and Sides book here) we took a few hours and created the fatty version of the McDonald’s Big Mac.  It’s loaded with american cheese, pickles onions, special sauce, beef, and sesame seeds.  Why did we wrap it in bacon too?  Why not?
