This is a bacon cheeseburger fatty. The ground beef is stuffed with cheddar cheese and wrapped with a bacon weave. The bacon weave is essentially a sheet of bacon. Who wouldn’t want a sheet of bacon?
1. To make the bacon weave, lay eight bacon strips, side by side, vertically. Horizontally, weave the top bacon strip through the vertical strips. For the remaining horizontal strips, pull back every other vertical bacon strip (see the picture above). Lay a bacon strip down up snug to the horizontal strips. Pull the vertical strips back down. Do the same thing again, but with the other vertical bacon strips. Do this for the rest of the bacon until you have a complete bacon weave.
2. Roll or pat out the ground beef to the same size shape as the bacon weave. Lay the cheese along the middle of the square of ground beef. Spread the BBQ spice rub across all the beef.
3. Roll up the ground beef into a log. Tuck in the sides to make sure there is no opening for the cheese to melt out of. Lay the beef on the bacon weave and wrap the weave around the beef log.
4. Smoke the fatty in a smoker set to 250F for about 2½ hours. Remove when the internal temperature is at 165F.
