Description
These Jack Daniels Brown Sugar Burnt Ends are a smoky, sweet, and savory appetizer or side dish. They are made from beef brisket and coated in a rich barbecue sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds beef brisket
- 1 cup Jack Daniels barbecue sauce
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your smoker or grill to 225 degrees F (107 degrees C).
- Trim any excess fat from the brisket.
- Season the brisket generously with salt and pepper.
- Place the brisket in the smoker or grill and cook for about 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
- Remove the brisket from the smoker and let it cool slightly.
- Cut the brisket into 1-inch cubes.
- In a bowl, combine the Jack Daniels barbecue sauce, brown sugar, butter, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Add the brisket cubes to the sauce mixture and toss to coat evenly.
- Return the coated brisket cubes to the smoker or grill, this time indirectly, for another 1-2 hours, or until the sauce is caramelized and the burnt ends are tender.
- Serve hot.
Notes
- You can adjust the sweetness and spice level of the sauce to your preference.
- For a crispier burnt end, you can broil them for a few minutes at the end of the cooking process.
- These are best served immediately, but leftovers can be reheated gently.
