The point on a brisket is typically the fattiest cut. Pitmasters often trim the point (and select edges) off a brisket and return those pieces to the smoker.
Are burnt ends tough, chewy worthless cuts of meat, or are they heavenly bites of smoky goodness? It depends on who you ask…
Rather than discard the trimmings and fat, we choose to savor all the information that flows through the site. So, sit down and help yourself to some burnt ends.

The 2016 Baylor signees are still mired in a holding pattern, but the first limb could fall from that tree this week. While Devin Duvernay is technically a free agent, this will be the first movement in the wake of the Baylor scandal. Let’s take a look at where Texas stands with the athletes currently linked to them.
Devin Duvernay – Duvernay wrapped up visits to Austin and Fort Worth in the last week, and while he enjoyed his time at both places, we are sticking with the sources we’ve had since the very beginning. It is our belief that Texas will come out on top for the dynamic receiver when he makes a decision this week. Texas was able to sell Duvernay on a role in the new offense that no one else could fill, and the players on campus were able to do their part in recruiting the dynamic speedster. To be clear I’m not saying this is over, but sources on all sides indicate that Texas is in a great position here. If and when Devin’s brother Donovan receives his release from Baylor, we expect him to have a spot in Austin.
Parrish Cobb – We reported a couple of weeks ago that things with Cobb were turning in the right direction for Texas. After previously zeroing in on Oklahoma, I was told by sources that a couple of Texas freshmen put in a ton of work on Cobb to get him to consider Texas. Once the LOI fiasco is resolved, we expect Texas to land Cobb.
Patrick Hudson – Now for the bad news. We were told a couple of weeks ago that Hudson was starting to turn towards enrolling at Baylor for the second summer session. In talking to some people this week, we learned that the thought is picking up steam. Hudson might have been a victim of some scare tactics by the Waco staff, because the previous indications we received from his family stated that Hudson had no plans to enroll at Baylor. We are still waiting for official word on the LOI resolution, but it looks like Baylor could have saved themselves here.
