Have you eaten Kansas City Burnt Ends?

Did you enjoy it?


These are made with the smoked burnt end of briskets.

These are caramelized and smoky pieces of BBQ brisket.

Yes, I was on a business trip to the Midwest and had burnt ends.  It was good.

The name does not sound appealing:  "burnt"

So long as they aren't to dry. I do brisket from time to time. The better tasting parts are from the middle.
Now how many have tried tritip?
I've lived all around the US and it can be regional

I tried them there in January for the first time. They were amazing, but then I always did like the crispy end of roast beef.

The burnt ends are what are tasted on bbq contests.
Those across the pond that tub in your backyard that you put charcoal in and put meat over is not a BBQ. It id a grill. A BBQ is done over indirect heat. No insult intended, but words matter.

I kind of agree. For the seemingly orgasmic quality they have... they could have picked a more appetising name.

Haha, no offence taken. We do not really do barbeque in the UK. I know it is a massively serious thing in the US. Kind of like Japanese Fugu chefs. You can devote your whole life to being a grill master. In the UK, a barbecue is what you wheel out during the one rain-free week of summer, and hope beyond hope that no one gets food poisoning. The US is way more serious and dedicated to the art of cooking meat.

In the US it's a culture. Your friends grade you on your grill or BBQ skills.

Some guys have a grillfriend.

I think most guys have a grillfriend, haha. ;D

Kellie, as a massive carnivore, I approve of this culture very much. Are you someone who is a sorceress with a spatula? The not-so-wicked witch of the brisket?

I try. I make some mean pork ribs. Tamed me about 6 hours of cooking.
I use real wood not a pellet smoker

It is interesting that good burnt ends can be sought after because anything burnt does not initially sound appealing.

I feel if you wat a well done steak that you're eating a burnt steak.

Burnt never sounds appetizing
