I'm going to make one for my wife (vegetarian) tomorrow. I will be using a soy bean mixture that resembles italian sausage. Has anyone smoked soy products before? I think I will smoke it for an hour? I, however, will be making myself a real meat fattie.

No meat? Wouldn’t you call that a “Leanie”??? :yum:

Seriously though, I haven’t tried that. I wonder how well the soy protein will hold together. Will you be using a binder of any type?

Good idea about the Crisco L2Q! When I posted earlier, I was trying to think of a fat, but everything I came up with was animal based. :oops:

At the Asian Market today, I saw Vegetable Sausage. It was a long roll that looked just like pepperoni. I wonder how that is?

My wife liked it, she wants me to make another for her family (of vegetarians) at a pool party this weekend. I stuffed it with white cheddar/tomato/basil cheese, onions and peppers. I smoked it for an hour when I saw the cheese oozing out. The meat was too dark to see a smoke ring. I'll use pork next time, it is a lighter color meat.

I use a product called "Match". It's made in St. Louis. It's a 1lb package of ground soy. They have different types of "meat" such as chicken, italian sausage, pork and beef. It holds together by itself, I used non-stick spary because it got sticky when I tried to shape it.

I have pictures, I will try to post them tonight.

Technically, pork isn't red meat. So you can still make fattie's. :biggrin:

I gave up eating meat for lent this year, but I couldn't bring myself to eat any soy products. It just don't look right to me. So I ate seafood, pasta, beans, rice, etc. It wasn't easy and I did cheat only one day, my wife and I went on a date for the first time since our boys were born and I celebrated with a ribeye steak dinner. That was 27 days into lent, I gave myself a lot of credit going that long. After lent was over, I had a Doctor appointment and I found that my cholestorhol dropped into the "normal" range.

Of course I started eating meat soon after and it has been ribs, pulled pork, steaks and fattie's ever since. Welcome back clogged arteries!:wave:
