TMan - you owe it to yourself to make these little meat candy nuggets...they are SO good! Lots of folks think "burnt ends" are the overcooked, dry end of a flat (or brisket) that you have to soak in sauce, and reheat, to get tender enough to eat! That may have been the original origins of the dish, but they've come a long ways! Next to prime rib, brisket point burnt ends are my all-time favorite BBQ dish!
