Helpful Tools
How to make a Smoked Breakfast Fatty
Preheat the smoker to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
On a piece of plastic wrap, weave the slices of bacon through each other then top with a layer of the breakfast sausage.
Place the hash brown patties in the very center of the sausage, and then spoon scrambled eggs on top of them.
Generously sprinkle cheese and diced ham on top of the layer of scrambled eggs.
Beginning at one end of the plastic wrap, start slowly rolling up your breakfast fatty. Once completely rolled, remove the plastic wrap and secure the ends of the bacon with toothpicks.
Season the outside of this breakfast fatty with sweet and smoky rub. Then, place it in the preheated smoker.
Smoke anywhere from 45-55 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove it from the smoker and allow to rest for 4-5 minutes before slicing into it.
How to Serve a Breakfast Fatty
Serve while hot! Pair this delicious smoked fatty recipe with cinnamon monkey bread or cinnamon rolls. And don’t forget the fresh hot coffee or the mimosas!
Storage Tips!
Store leftover breakfast fatty in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can reheat the breakfast fatty in the microwave or oven. Cut a slice to heat up in the microwave, or place the rest of the fatty in the oven at 350 until warmed through.
Can I use different fillings inside of my breakfast fatty?
Sure! If you can’t find hash brown patties, you can use tater tots. You can also add any type of cheese you’d like, veggies, or any other filling that sounds tasty to you. If you like spicy food, add some hot peppers like jalapeños to your breakfast fatty.
How do I make a bacon weave?
Lay down about six piece of bacon, all facing vertically, and pull back every other piece of bacon halfway. Lay one slice of bacon horizontally across the vertical pieces bacon that are laid flat, and then pull the other slices over. Take the opposite vertical slices and pull them back halfway. Lay another strip of bacon across horizontally, and pull the slices of bacon over again. Continue this process until you make a complete weave.
Pro Tips for the Best Smoked Fatty Recipe
- Don’t overcook your fatty! Be sure to check it right at 45 minutes and get a good read on the internal temperature. If it’s done, pull it out and let it sit for a few minutes before you cut into.
- Use thick-cut applewood smoked bacon for an extra tasty smoky flavor.
- If you have trouble spreading your breakfast sausage across the bacon weave, use a rolling pin to easily roll it out.
This smoked breakfast fatty never fails to impress! Try it out the next time it’s your turn to host brunch.
