When you think of brisket burnt ends, you probably imagine a steaming plate of BBQ with a side of crunchy pickles and macaroni and cheese. A fabulous meal in itself, but not what we’re going for here today. When you can have a product like Curly’s RoadTrip Eats Brisket Burnt Ends at your disposal at any given time, it’s only right to think outside the box every now and then.
What I want for you to take away from this post is an ability to look beyond what you would typically use a product for and make something extraordinary. Yes, Curly’s BBQ products are amazing when they’re simply served on a bun, but they can also be a unique dinner when you’re in a pinch. I bet you would have never thought to pair these ingredients together, but they honestly work SO well. You’re going to be floored. You can find Curly’s in the refrigerated meat case of your local grocery store. Keep your eyes peeled so that you can make this on your next busy weeknight!
