BRISKET vs. CHUCK ROAST BURNT ENDS

Why do burnt ends using a chuck roast over a brisket? Most people will say is it way more economical but dollar for dollar they are almost the same in caparison. The only reason why it is more feasible is that the weight per lb is extremely lower - hence why cheaper to purchase.

WHAT ARE BURNT ENDS?

Burnt ends are typically bite-sized - smoked infused - barky goodness produced by a brisket or pork belly. They are smoked infused barky/crusty bites that are usually drenched in sauce. Fully rendered down meat - with maximized bark - smothered in BBQ sauce.

THE PREP

Preheat your pellet smoker to 225 degrees. In the meantime prepare your smoked chuck roast by smothering all sides in your mustard binder. You won't taste the mustard in this smoked chuck roast it is only used to help adhere the rub to the beef. I used "Black Label Rub" by Louisiana Grills and coated all sides evenly.

THE COOK

Once your pellet grill has preheated (I used my Louisiana Grills Founders Series 1200) place your smoked chuck roast on your grill directly. You can place a small water pan for moisture alongside if you like optional.

For these chuck roast burnt ends you want to cook your smoked chuck roast just like a brisket. The fats need to render in the same fashion, and most importantly, you want optimized bark. This cook will take at least 5-6 hours minimum up to 8 hours depending on the size. Once your beautiful smoked chuck roast reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees you wrap it in butcher paper (I used Pitboss Grills butcher paper). After tightly wrapping, place back on the grill for another hour or until internal of 190 degrees.
