Just took my brisket off and Im getting ready to cut up the point. Im gonna fill up an aluminum pan with them and throw them back on the egg smothered in sauce. just wondering what kinda sauce you guys would use? I got some KC masterpiece, some arthur bryants, and some blues hog. Anyone have any ideas?

    Mix the KC Masterpiece and Arthur Bryant's 2:1.

    Is it Bryant's original?

    Often the point will get re-seasoned and go back on the pit for a while before cubing. This is not mandatory, so if you go ahead and cube it now, give the cubes a sprinkle of rub.

    As far as sauce goes, use what ever is your favorite. I like to thin mine a hair with cider vinegar so it doesn't get to gooey during the reduction.

  • I like to put a good dose of rub on it and then I like to use a little stronger sauce that is a bit more peppery. Bobby Que (made by an egger from Oklahoma) is pretty good on there. Russ and Franks is pretty good too. The sassy version.

    I'm the opposite. I love the gooey sticky goodness in burnt ends.
  • Here's my favorit....But you can't buy it, you gotta' make it B) . The liquid smoke may not be needed, but still adds!

    DAD'S BBQ SAUCE
    Dad's Kitchen
    From JB

    3 C. crushed tomatoes (tomato sauce will also do)
    1 small onion, grated
    1-1/2 t. prepared, crushed garlic (about 4 to 5 fresh cloves)
    1/4 C. cider vinegar
    3 T. Worcestershire
    2 T. olive oil
    1-1/2 t. dry mustard
    1-1/2 t. paprika
    1/2 t. cumin
    1 t. Pickapeppa Sauce
    2 T. brown sugar, packed
    1 t. liquid smoke

    !)) Combine in a heavy bottom sauce pan; tomatoes, onion, garlic and vinegar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a low simmer.

    2)) Add all the remaining ingredients, except the sugar and smoke, simmer to your desired thickness.

    3)) Add the sugar and smoke, continue to simmer for an additional 5 minutes (or desired thickness, if the sauce thins too much from the added ingredients)

    Baste your favorite meats as you are grilling, or simply smother the meat in a baking pan and roast in a slow oven

    JB's TIPS
    I most always have three (or more) forms of garlic in the house, fresh, prepared (minced and/or crushed) and garlic powder. Any from will do fine when making this sauce, just keep in mind the equivalents.
    1 t. crushed = 3 cloves.
    1/2 t. minced = 1 clove
    1/8 t. powder = 1 clove

    Piickapeppa Sauce is something I stumbled upon while browsing the steak sauce section, looking for London Pub. It appears to be imported from Jamaica and has a very interesting taste! I have now used it in a number of hot-dish types of things with great success.

    Liquid smoke is another staple in the fridge. I have tried a few different brands and have settled on Wright's It has nothing added...just smoke. I like that about ingredients I'm using.

    They are all good, from brownies served with table sauce at the end to ones cooked down with a reduced sauce, to PBE's (pork burnt ends)
