"I grew up in Houston eating barbecue, but honestly, these burnt ends—the pieces that fall off when slicing brisket—will make you rethink all you know about barbecue. They are fatty, juicy, and full of caramelized goodness."

Brian Luscher

"If you are lucky enough to get the burnt ends, they are gold."
