1st time making Kansas City Burnt Ends

[young j]

Hey, been a while since I posted on here but smoked some Kansas City style burnt ends for the first time yesterday I wanted to share.

I found a few prime brisket points on sale at Milan’s this weekend. I got a few of them and decided to make real burnt ends with one of the points.

I smoked it on my WSM at 250. Smoked it until it reached 195 IT, let it rest for 30 min before I cut it into cubes and then I put it into a tin pan with bbq sauce, covered the top with foil and finished them in the oven since the fire died out. Blown away by how good they came out, really tender, nice bark and not too sweet.

Looks great! I’m pretty jealous that you can buy points. Around me it’s either whole packer or the flat. Never see the points. I’d only buy them if I could.

Mind if I ask what sauce you used?

Well done, wish I could buy points around here, but I have a better chance of catching a leprechaun tomorrow.

Milan’s is actually the only place I’ve ever seen that only sells the point.

Milam's is the only place I've ever seen that sells brisket points and it was the second time I've ever seen it in the meat section of the store. For the most part, it is hard to find butchers down here in Miami that sell the whole packer unless you pre-order it.

I used Sonny's Sweet sauce
