    Chuckie Burnt ends

    I decided to do some burnt ends for mother's day, so I decided on the Chuck roast route. Marinated them all night with Jeff's rub and that Worcestershire sauce. Then onto the smoker at 530 am. So far so good. They are looking rather yummy.

I don't have a smoker anymore, so I'm using this gas grill with an offset approach, and this nifty square ama-Z-en tube wannabe, which works just fine. As you can see I have some bacon wrapped yumminess as well...
