I don't think I made a terminology error, I did make the burnt ends from the point. It was mainly an unsuccessful cook overall, it was the first time I used my new Traeger and I just didn't cook everything long enough. I have just never made another attempt, because I prefer to eat the slices I get from the flat. That is the main reason I cook flats most of the time. I do like burnt ends, but really like a good, moist, tasty slice of brisket. Just like some people would rather eat a Sirloin steak than a Ribeye.
