Burnt Ends: Chewy or Melt in Your Mouth???

[QansasjayhawQ]

When I get both, I judge taste by biting off a little of the slice and adding a burnt end piece in my mouth.

I take another bite of the slice to judge tenderness.

But - yes - whatever meat is in the box gets judged.

My "chunks" are not really "burnt ends".

They are square chunks of point (normally) or flat (if needed).

TENDER with no unrendered fat is the key for me, both as a Judge and as a Cook.

Tender for us...

We only include them if they are up to our requirements as far as taste and tenderness. In fact we nick-named them "Black Truffle Brisket chunks" because when they are on it's increadable and when they are off they taste like dirt....
