LB's entry has my head spinning - god that looks awesome. I know all of those flavors well, esp SL's Garlic Hot Sauce. So far that has my vote. Yum.

Take a pound of Jimmie Dean sausage, flatten it out, brush with homemade peanut butter BBQ sauce, add Serrano, habs, orange and red bells, bourbon soaked apples, and a sprinkle of cheese. Then roll it into a fattie and lay it on your bacon weave.

Voila. Time to go on the weber kettle over indirect heat for a bit

I sure wish I could have got in on this one! I just got home for the first time in weeks, and I'm too tired to get off the couch...

Ok, here's the finishing up.

The pork was pulled from the smoker and smothered with the Homemade Bourbon Apple Butter then placed into a 170 degree F overn to build up a nice apple bark.

Next I heated up the CI then added Butter, Sugar and 2 Jiggers of Bourbon

Once that got to smellin good add some juliened Jalapeno's

shreddeed Cabbage and Apple slices and a pinch of salt

While that gets to cookin take another pot and add 3 Tbs Peanut Butter to 2/3 cup Bourbon Apple butter and 1/2 cup chicken broth and bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer till it's nice and about simi thick.

Keep the cabbage moving and the give the sauce a stir every couple of minutes.
