Decided to try some faux burnt ends. Threw a couple of Chuckies in the FEC, one rubbed with Oakridge Black Ops brisket rub and the other with #porkmafia Texas Gold. 180 for a couple hours to get some extra smoke then bumped up to 250.
Threw some peach beans in after a few hours.
Took one of the chuckies out when it hit 160, cubed it, added some more rub and back in for a few more hours.
Added some sauce and let it set for about 20 minutes.
Turned out pretty good, not as good as brisket burnt ends, but pretty darned tasty none the less. A side of the peach BBQ beans & Carolina slaw to round things out.
Pulled came out great as well. I see BBQ sammiches & tacos in my future.
