Title: Burnt meat trimmings
Post by: GusRobin on May 07, 2018, 09:17:04 PM
This weekend I cooked with my friends' BBQ team. When they trimmed down the brisket, they took a lot of meat off. So I took home about 2 1/2 lbs of meat trimmings (not including fat). Some were big pieces others small. So I took the small and thin pieces, ground them up and made meatballs. They came out great but I forgot to take pictures.
I took the two bigger pieces and decided to make burnt ends.
So I threw them on the smoker to cook.

Took them off when the temp reached about 160* and got ready to wrap in butcher paper.

Left them on for about an hour and the temp was 202.

Chopped up and sauced and ready to go back on

how long in the sauce?  They look great..Uncle Dee and Ka Hone made them at one of the gatherings and they were the best I ever tasted, can't get decent one in Ohio or Illinois or other places I have ordered them. So I will try and make my own.  .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

The team I cooked with won grand champion. I cooked with them at Whistlestop in 2015, 2017, 2018. And they won each of those years. Aside from the fact that they are currently rated 4th in the KCBS team standings, I prefer to think it was me that made the difference. (that's my story and I am sticking to it.)

I only did them in the sauce for about 30 minutes (it started to rain so I pulled them before I would be out in the rain.)
