Burnt Legend
Chapter 5 - Is This The Ends?
Clip | 6m 48sVideo has Closed Captions
Singers have Broadway. Aspiring pitmasters? They come to Kansas City.
In Chapter 5 of Burnt Legend, pitmasters talk of all the ways they have incorporated (and are still hoping to incorporate) burnt ends into new menu items. Burnt ends have long added smoke and body to beans and chili (there’s a particularly solid version at Woodyard Bar-B-Que in Kansas City, Kansas), but now they’re being found in everything from egg rolls to loaded baked potatoes.
