Hi,
I feel dumb asking this, and im still a noob so don't hate me, but after a wide search I couldn't really determine what burnt ends are exactly. I know it is made from a brisket and I have surmised that you need the tip portion for burnt ends. If I had to guess I think I would say that it is the burnt tip part of the brisket that you then cut off at or near the end of cooking, but then it appears that people further process them...?
Anyway I haven't found any burnt ends "recipe's" so even if my guess is correct about where they come from I cant find anything on how to process the end cut off pieces to finish them up.
Everyone just seems to talk about them like everyone already knows what they are, so im missing something here I guess.
So... What exactly are they, how do you make em, and is it worth it?
