Ok, I made a version today, of the Ultimate Artery Clogger... I did everything the same except I put a pork tender loin in the middle and wrapped it all up. Smoked it for 2.5 hours, 165 degrees inner temp... pulled that thing out and it was awesome...
Next time I am going to use deer sausage, and a deer tender loin... The family thought the Itallian sausage was to strong.... what a meal... It was all gone, no left overs...
I do recommend it... Good luck, Good eating...

Trays, ya beat me to the punch buddy! I too, finally got to smoke mine yesterday.
I have always been one to experiment a little in the kitchen so my final product was:
2.5lb bacon, 2lb bulk sweet sausage, Weber's Sweet & Tangy BBQ Rub, Sweet Baby Ray's Honey and Hickory BBQ Sauce and as a final kick I added 1.5 cups of Chi-Chi's medium Salsa to the center of the log.
I was colncerned about spicy or italian sausage being overwelming so I opted for sweet sausage on the 1st try. Later, will experiment with differt mixtures of sausages.
I followed the instructions closely. I saw the bacon I was using was a bit narrow so I ended up doing a 8x8 weave. After I spread out the bulk sauge on the weave (1/2" thick) and seasoned it with the rub, I could see that 1lb of crumbed bacon didn't quite cover it right so I used 1.5lb of bacon. Drizzled about 6-8 ozs of BBQ sauce all over the bacon.
I felt something else was needed so I added 1.5 cups of Chi-Chi's Medium Salsa piled in a row 2 inches from one end. I started rolling from that end trapping the salsa in the middle.
Made sure I pinched all opening shut in the sauge roll then I wrapped her up in the weave.
Rubbed the weave real good and popped her in a hickory fired smoker for 3 hours (165F).
at about 2 hours I painted the topside with more Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce.
It was fanatastic guys! The flavor was a wonderful aray of hickory, bacon, sweet sauge, molasses and honey from the sauces and just a barely discernable tweek from the salsa. Was not very greasey at all.
I can't wait to try this with a nice big peice of backstrap. I think I'll keep the Chi-Chi's as part of the recipe also!
I give this recipe 4 stars for a first effort!

I wonder if you can bar-b-q on low heat instead of smoking it? Anybody tried not smoking it?

Obviously, you need to shoot him first! Then, cut out his t-loins make an Italian sausage sandwich out of two 10-inch lengths, and fasten with bacon strips.

Finally tried this baby. Had to do a six by six weave on it. 1.25 pound Italian sausage, 1.25 pound hot Italian sausage, 2 lbs thick cut bacon. Put some chopped onion and liquid hickory in there since I don't have a smoker. Cooked it for 2 hours at 300 degrees in a convection oven. Put some sausage balls cover in bbq sauce in later to cook in the bacon juices to go with it. Fed 10 adults and two kids with it all. Had beans, potato salad, and rolls with it. Apple pie, rhubarb pie, and peanut butter pie and ice cream for desert. I can hardly move. Everyone LOVED it.!!!!
Next time I think I am going to put some sharp cheddar in the middle. Everyone wants to do it again. So maybe at Christmas, I will oblige them.

Good deal Helo. We made this shortly after this thread. I'm still dying a slow death from it. It is the highest LDL meal I have ever had.

Glad you liked it Drew! Too bad you waited till bacon is pushing $5lb!!! At least it is on the east coast. Grocery prices have steadily been going up! When I did my T-day shopping I was apalled to see Hellmans Mayo 30oz now not 32 selling for $5.25..... I need to buy a farm!

I did this again a couple weeks ago, but added chopped garlic and sharp cheddar to it. It was even better that way. I am a cheese fan, so I may be a little biased, but I think it added just the right touch to it. Did it with applewood rub, and Sweet Baby Ray's. Had a little kick to it, but great contrast with the cheddar.
