Ingredients

• 1 pound bacon strips: Thick-cut for a sturdy weave.
• 1 pound ground breakfast sausage: Choose mild or spicy, whatever your taste buds desire.
• 4 large eggs, scrambled: Fluffy and delicious, just the way we like them.
• 4 ounces diced ham: For that extra punch of savory goodness.
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese: Because melted cheese is non-negotiable.
• 2 hash brown patties, thawed: Crispy, golden, and perfect.
• 1 tablespoon Sweet & Smoky Rub: Store-bought or homemade, this rub is the secret to that mouthwatering finish.

Directions

1. Preheat & Prep: Fire up your smoker to 350°F and get ready to roll—literally.
2. Weave That Bacon Magic: Lay out those bacon strips and weave them together like you’re crafting a meaty masterpiece.
3. Layer on the Love: Spread the ground sausage evenly over the bacon weave. Center those hash brown patties, then pile on the scrambled eggs, shredded cheese, and diced ham.
4. Roll It Up: Using the plastic wrap to help, roll that fatty from one end to the other, keeping it tight and secure. Remove the plastic wrap and stick some toothpicks in to hold everything together.
5. Rub & Smoke: Sprinkle the Sweet & Smoky Rub all over, then place the fatty in your smoker. Let it smoke for 45-55 minutes until the internal temp hits a sizzling 165°F.
6. Rest & Slice: Give it 4-5 minutes to cool off (if you can wait that long), then slice it up and serve while it’s still hot and juicy.

Side Dish Ideas

• Cinnamon Monkey Bread: Sweet, sticky, and the perfect partner to your savory fatty.
• Grilled Blueberry French Toast: A fruity, grilled delight that pairs beautifully with the smoky goodness of the fatty.
• Mimosas or Freshly Brewed Coffee: Because brunch without drinks is just a sad breakfast.
