    Is there such a thing as a holiday pork belly burnt ends recipe?

    I've been thinking about what to cook as my contribution to the Thanksgiving pot luck that my office has every year. We have a staff that come from a lot of different countries, so it isn't expected to just be turkey or ham... I'm certain that PBBE will be unexpected, since here in Central Texas burnt ends are immediately associated with cow.

    What are yall's recipe ideas for a Thanksgiving style version of pork belly burnt ends?

      Oh. And add some turkey decorated toothpicks or something.

      Yeah, that's what I was thinking too - because I can't think of any way to make them more festive than the basic thing! Which will certainly work. They'll be gobbled down before the gobbler!

      I do have a bandana for my dog that has turkeys on it. He wears that on Thanksgiving. Do burnt ends just normal, but think outside the box and have visual aids.

      Perhaps you could add more herbs to the rub?

        I'd consider sprinkling in some candied pecans. Don't distract from the fact that what you are brining tastes better than anything else there.

            Maybe use an apricot glaze, or dare I say throw some pumpkin spice in the sauce mix somewhere

                I made some pork belly bacon burnt ends for the bbq class monday. They were gone in a flash!
                Here's my recipe I am going to try next.

                1./ Make a double or triple batch of Meatheads bacon and I add more black pepper, chopped jalapeño, honey and soy sauce.
                2./ After 4 days in the fridge wash and cut into burnt ends
                3./ Coat with meatheads memphis dust and smoke at 225-250f until they turn a nice color
                4./ Put into a foil pan, cover with lots of honey, peach jam, more chopped jalapeño and fruit or apple juice then cook until tender.
                5./ When done pull from the pit and let cool a bit, then crush 1/2 a bag of nacho chips and roll them in that just before serving.

                  Never really thought about the crunch vector. Are you making those from scratch? If so, how?

                  JG037 The nacho chips?? Nope I just buy a bag of them. Too busy to make them from scratch.

                  I am cooking in an Eggfest in about a month. I was planning on doing something similar. I was thinking of 3 ways, adobo, tomatillo salsa, and the maple w/ Jalapeno.

                Keep the ideas coming! The typical crowd for the pot luck is about 40 people... There's always someone bringing a fried turkey, and funny enough usually someone does pork ribs. (I definitely need to get better at making pork ribs before bringing them in for this crowd)

                There are a fair number of different recipes for PBBE that I've seen, Ahumadora what you listed sounds great!

                      LOL! Since it is Thanksgiving the earlier pumpkin spice suggestion might be closer to the mark. Presentation could maybe incorporate that - pumpkin spiced candied pecan halves, the kind that are baked with brown sugar and cayenne to make them kick.

                      How about you stuff your turkey with burnt ends?

                      OMG, that sounds like an awesome idea! Kind of like a meat version of Reese's cups! Two GREAT tastes taste great together! 👍
