And the Valley Cooks: Pork Belly Burnt Ends
Billy GomilaMy wife and I like to host, so I’m always on the lookout for new appetizer-type ideas. So when this video came across my Facebook feed, you might say the idea of PORK. BELLY. BURNT. ENDS. Was kind of intriguing.
Belly has become one of the hot restaurant items that you can find a lot of different ways — braised is usually great. It’s pretty damn tough to beat in cracklin’ form, but this idea was definitely intriguing as well.
Burnt ends are great, and I’ve never even tried to make the original myself. For one, I still don’t have a ton of confidence in my ability to smoke brisket, plus my butchering skills to successfully remove the point from the flat.
