The Boss of Burnt Ends Meat Candy Box

5.0 out of 5 from 18 reviews.

Burnt ends earned the nickname meat candy honestly, and the flavor comes from what goes on before and after the smoke. This box matches the rub to the sauce for you, so the sweet and the smoke land where they should.

  • Two rubs: Palisade Peach by The Spice Guy for pork belly, Lane's Brisket Rub for beef.
  • Two sauces: Lane's Pineapple Chipotle and Kinder's Hickory Brown Sugar.
  • The spritz bottle that keeps color building without washing the rub off.
  • A recipe card with both cooks, pork belly and brisket, and the timing.

These “Burnt Ends” are easy to make and absolutely delicious! This is a great option if you don’t have the time to smoke a larger cut or looking for a leaner option.

Ingredients

  • Smoke Steakhouse Seasoning by Padiano’s Kitchen
  • Dixie Red BBQ Sauce by Old Southern BBQ
  • 2 whole Pork Tenderloins
  • 1 stick Butter, Cubed
  • 1 Cup of Water or a can of Lager

Directions

  1. Preheat your smoker or grill to 250 °F using wood or charcoal of choice.

  2. Prepare the burnt ends: Remove any hanging pieces of fat and membranes from the tenderloin. Cut into 3 inch by 3 inch cubes.

  3. On a baking rack, place cubes about 1/2 inch apart. Season with Smoke Steakhouse Seasoning by Padiano’s Kitchen.

  4. Smoke for 2 hours, then remove and add to a grill safe baking dish or foil pan.

  5. Increase grill temperature to 325 °F.

  6. Add 1 stick of butter, 1/4 cup Dixie Red BBQ Sauce by Old Southern BBQ and either 1 Cup of water or 1 beer.

  7. Cover with foil and continue to smoke until about 203 to 205 °F internal temperature.

  8. Remove and let cool.

Hey Kevin, thanks for your question!

I just spoke with Rosalie (@castironskillz), our lead Pitmaster and the author of this recipe — she says that while the recipe calls for pork tenderloin, you can substitute pork loin, pork shoulder, or even chuck roast (if you prefer beef) and the recipe will turn out great. :)

Happy grilling!

Is this for a pork tenderloin or a pork loin?
