I wanted to share one amazing thing that I have made on the Pit Barrel. It is Bacon Wrapped Smoked Burnt Ends. I did a full packer brisket and a separate point in the Barrel (AMAZING!!). I removed the points and put them both in a vacuum sealed bag overnight as I had a Christmas party the next night. Take the points out of the bag and cut them into roughly 1" squared cubes. Brush them with your favorite BBQ Sauce, sprinkle generously with your favorite rub (mine is Pit Barrel Beef and Game!) and wrap in bacon. Place them on a Bradley Rack then heat them in the oven, grill or back on the smoker at 200-225. I let them go until the bacon crisps up. These absolutely melt in your mouth. I made about 100 of these and with a group of 7 of us they were gone in minutes. To be fair, this is NOT my recipe. I have made my own adjustments, but it is a recipe from Jeff Phillips. If you do a search for "Bacon Wrapped Smoked Burnt Ends" you will find it. Not pushing anything he does, but this recipe is out of this world.

Dark cloud: I've got a 3-pound smoked point and several pounds of cheap bacon in the freezer and this looks REALLY good but I have to pass because SWMBO would be really (I mean REALLY REALLY) upset if I ate the whole thing and I don't see any way to prevent doing so.
Silver lining: Luckily she's going to the mainland for a few days next month.

Probably not. I'm guessing the point will find its way into some sandwiches, chili, or pepper stout beef and at least some of the bacon will go to pig shots before then. Looks like I better start thinking about the next brisket.

Here is the recipe link in case anyone needs it. I know its hard to save the burnt ends, but very worth the try.
