BBQ Bacon Sausage Log Explosion

talk about yummy!

Credit to these guys for the idea.

Now, on to my attempt!

First, we gotta soak some hickory:

While it’s soaking, I get started on my bacon weave blanket of succulence.

Then we give the blanket a good rub down with some barbecue seasoning (I added chili pepper to the mix, I’m Indian and I can’t help it). I was not sparing here. In the background you can see some sizzling bacon, we’ll get back to that:

Here’s a nice shot of all the parts. Bottom left, we see the italian sausage flattened into a nice square on tinfoil. On top of the sausage I drizzled some BBQ sauce and worked it in to the top layer. The bacon weave with the dry rub is next to it. We see some more sizzling bacon, as well as a plate with some already cooked bacon, letting it cool so I can dice it up.

Now we put it all together! First layer is the bacon weave, seasoning side up. On top the bacon weave, we put the sausage square with BBQ sauce worked in to the top 1/4″. On top of that we have stir fried bacon, drizzled with more dry rub and lots of BBQ sauce. It looks good enough to eat already :drool:

All rolled up and ready for smoking!

Let’s put it on the grill!

Smoke away….tick tock

Almost…

Final Product:

It’s just as delicious as it looks
