Faux Burnt Ends - an all day affair.
« on: June 06, 2015, 06:55:23 PM »
I had a craving for Burnt Ends, but since it is just me and the dog for now I was not going to buy a whole brisket.  A quick internet search turned up a great idea, burnt ends using chuck roast.


From my butcher - nice and marbled:





Covered with a favorite rub and thrown in the fridge for the night:





Going with a combo of Oak and Pecan.  Wapiti gets the call:








Temp where it needs to be, see you in about 8 hours!








While the roast was cooking away, I made up some sauce from a few different ingredients.  Shooting for Tangy, Spicy, Sweet





Pulled it at 190.  Let it rest for 1 hour, then cut it into pieces.  Covered it with the sauce and left it in the fridge for 4 hours to marinate.








Pulled the pan from the fridge, heated up Bisbee with half a chimney of Royal Oak, and let it all simmer and caramelize for 30 minutes:





Well, I started at 5:00 AM and ate around 7:00 PM.  It was perfect - tender moist meat wrapped in crunchy bark with a thick, caramelized sauce.  I wanted no distractions (salad, etc), and chose to put it over a couple of pieces of toast.  The payoff:





I have leftovers in the fridge for tomorrow.  A lot of effort, but spending the day with the Weber(s) is always worthwhile.

That looks dynamite for a bachelor night.  Nicely done.

Side note:  What kind of wood is that in your butcher block?

I don't know, @Winz, I think you made it look pretty easy?

Question: For the 4-hr-marinade stage could you have just left it in the fridge overnight? Meaning, if you simply wanted to smoke it the day before and eat the next day, to not require the full marathon? Never made burnt ends before by any means.

It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch
