Boshizzle: Why don't the brown sugar and molasses burn at the higher temp you are cooking at?

Brisket is a big cut of meat that takes a long time to come up to temp. Plus, I use indirect heat.

Just a follow up and to keep things linked, Pitmaster-T performed an independent test and validation of my thesis that the use of baking soda can be effective for speeding up the Maillard reaction. Details here -

Just started into the thread, but battery acid is dilute sulfuric acid, 33.5% to be exact, so sulfuric should be more acid than battery acid :-)

And while we're at it, I found an entertaining explanation behind some of the specific scientific principles at play during the Maillard reaction and why adding a base to whatever you are cooking helps to speed up the process.

Was that really 4 1/2 hours of cook time @ 325... did I read that right? I'd like to try it, but that's a lot shorter cook time than I'm used to.

It's black magic! Any master chef/BBQ person will tell you that you gotta cook'em for 22 hours to properly render out the fat and get enough mesquite smoke flavor into the meat!:twitch::wacko::boxing:

Now THOSE are burnt ends... like the ones you got at Arthur Bryant's on Brooklyn (KC) before they started charging for them.... Yes, they were free with your order... a long time ago.
