Fat. Shakespeare only employs the word once, in a speech in Act 2 Scene 2 of Part 1 of Henry IV given by the excessively gorbellied knight, Falstaff: "Hang ye, gorbellied knaves, are ye undone? No, ye fat chuffs: I would your store were here! On, bacons, on!"

You should be able to get it from the context: the "fat chuffs" and the porky "bacons".
