Hey SMF family this was supposed to be weekend for my new smoker but some things came up and plans changed so I fired up the WSM. I already had some csr's and a butt and friends coming over so decided to try something different. Pork burnt ends or as my wife calls it "pork nuggets". I smoked the csr's for 3 hrs at 210 then took off let it rest 20 mins and cubed them. I then made a sauce similar to the foiling juice recipe I found on here. Sorry new to the site and don't remember who posted it. But just some butter, apple juice, honey, molasses, ketchup, vinegar, mustard and some spices. I learned to cook from my folks and they don't measure hardly anything so I have no clue amounts. "Just eyeball how much you feel" as my mom would say. Not helpful I know but the more you do it the more u know how much to use. Anyways I coated and put back on the smoker for 20 min in the pan to get the smoke flavor in the sauce then foiled and cooked for another 30 min. I hope I'm doing this q view right so here it goes... Off the smoker.

Cubed after resting

Sauced.

Sorry don't have pics of the final because they were gone in 5 min. They were really good and now mandatory with every smoke according to the wife and friends.
Hope you all enjoy!
 
Those look great! You can do it with a butt also just cube it up at about 160*IT. Do your self a favor and get a perforated pan you can use in the smoker I don't have one yet but seen another member using one for burnt ends and it worked amazing!:Looks-Great:
