How to Grill a Fatty

OK, here’s how I grilled my first Fatty and what I learned.  If you don’t know what a Fatty is, you’re about to find out what you’re missing.  Seriously good eats!

To start I cooked a few strips of bacon in the oven to my desired texture.  Cook your bacon the way you like it, drain and set aside.

I then sauteed 1/4 of a very large white onion and two minced cloves of garlic in butter.  I always start with the onion, then add the garlic and pull from the heat when the kitchen smells of garlic and everything looks soft.

The sausage was placed on a large cutting board over clear wrap.  I then worked the meat until I had about a 12″x14″  piece of meat.  I then added the Onions and Garlic, spreading them out evenly across the meat.  Then the Provolone and freshly chopped bacon we added.

Cynthia McKinney Jailed in Israel

Former lawmaker Cynthia McKinney remains in an Israeli jail along with other human rights activists.

McKinney was on a Gaza bound ship when it was boarded by the Israeli Navy for violating the Israeli blockade and trespassing the country’s territorial waters.

Now consider this,  President Obama has condemned the blockade of Gaza, McKinney is left-winger, yet Obama isn’t doing anything to get her and the other activists released.  Heck, he’s not even addressing the issue.  Something fishy is going on…

Bill Weber Out for the Rest of TNT’s NASCAR Broadcasts

After being suspended by TNT last week for an apparent dustup at a New Hampshire hotel, Bill Weber is out for the rest of TNT’s NASCAR races.  He’ll be replaced by Ralph Sheheen for the remaining two races.

Sheheen will be in the booth handling the play-by-play action for the The Coke Zero 400 in Daytona and the LifeLock.com 400 from Chicagoland.  He’ll be joined by Wally Dallenbach and Kyle Petty.

In all honesty, I like Weber the best.  With that said, anything is better than listening to Daryll Waltrip’s worn out “Boogity, boogity, boogity, and Larry McReynolds “Reach up and grab those belts tight ONE MORE TIME!”

I’m really tired of those two.
