Ultimate Arteflame Grill Burnt Ends Recipe: Mastering Smoky BBQ Perfection

Introduction:

Burnt ends are a BBQ delicacy, known for their smoky, caramelized exterior and juicy, tender interior. Using the Arteflame grill, you can achieve the perfect burnt ends with a steakhouse-quality sear and a rich smoky flavor. Follow this recipe to create BBQ perfection.

Ingredients:

  • 4 lbs beef brisket point
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup BBQ rub (your favorite blend)
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Fresh herbs for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Brisket:

    • Start by firing up the grill to get it ready for grilling.
    • Trim excess fat from the brisket point, leaving a thin layer for flavor.
    • Rub the brisket with olive oil, then generously season with BBQ rub.
  2. Sear the Brisket:

    • Place the brisket on the center grill grate of the Arteflame grill.
    • Sear each side at over 1,000°F for 3-4 minutes to lock in the juices and develop a rich crust.
    • Move the seared brisket to the flat cooktop to bring it up to the desired doneness using indirect heat.
  3. Cook the Brisket:

    • Close the grill lid and cook the brisket until it reaches an internal temperature of 195°F, about 4-5 hours.
    • Remove the brisket from the grill and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  4. Prepare the Burnt Ends:

    • Cut the brisket into 1-inch cubes.
    • Place the cubes in an aluminum pan, add BBQ sauce, brown sugar, and butter.
    • Toss to coat the cubes evenly.
  5. Finish Cooking:

    • Return the pan to the grill, cooking the burnt ends for an additional 1-2 hours until they are caramelized and tender.
  6. Serve:

    • Remove from the grill and garnish with fresh herbs.
    • Serve with your favorite sides like pickles and coleslaw.

Tips:

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the brisket reaches the perfect temperature.
  • Adjust the BBQ sauce and rub to your taste preference.
