Did pork butt burnt ends tonight and wife kept saying "these are good, these are really good!"  5 year old granddaughter said "Papaw cooked good!" I have to agree with them.  But the pieces with the bark on them are bite size pieces of heaven.  I'll call this a success.

At 160, cubed, panned and getting ready to go get the BGE love.image

After 2.5 hours more 350 and they finally decided to get tender.  image

    Nice. I do this with country style ribs as long as they are cut from the butt. Pulled pork in 90 minutes!

    Brother I'm glad that you enjoyed them. My family actually prefers the pork burnt ends over the more traditional beef ones. I have to say that yours looks spectacular. If I may sir:

    These look tasty. After they were cubed, did you cook on the egg covered or uncovered? Did @SGH‌ have a thread on these? More details please.

    If I may ask, did you use any kind of sauce? If so, what? Sometimes I use sauce sometimes I do not. Just depends on my mood at the time.

    I did not post a thread, but I responded to someone asking about a alternative to point meat be used for burnt ends. I explained how I did it with pork shoulder. They turn out excellent if you like pork.

    @stemc33...I prepped normal like I was doing pulled pork.  No injection, nothing but my rub and  cooked at 350 dome until IT of 160.  Cubed and put into a pan and added my family favorite sauce 50/50 mix of Blues Hog Original and Sonny's Sweet.  You would think it is going to be to sweet but it's not, great favor.  Then back onto the BGE, still at 350, uncovered until they get tender.  These took about 2 hours more on the egg.  I did check on them every 1/2 hour and gave them a stir. No reason other than I wanted to check on them, get a good color and test for tenderness.

    Think I'm going to do this Christmas Eve but with APL Melting Garlic instead of BBQ sauce. Maybe a trial run or two before then to make sure i have it down would be in order as well. Thanks for the reminder.

    Well that depends.  While I was cutting the meat I could not resist the smell and seeing the juices oozing out of the cubes anymore and had to taste it.  Then cubed some more, tasted some more, OMG it was so good un-sauced.  Then I did a 50/50 mix of Blues Hog Original and Sonny's Sweet sauce, mixed it in and then caramelized it in the egg.

    I like it both ways as well. I'm glad that you tried it both sauced and unsauced. There are times that I just let it ride and use no sauce at all. Again I'm glad that you enjoyed them my friend.
