JACK DANIELS BACON BURNT ENDS

[@nathan0717]

Man I’ve been busy as hell for the last couple of weeks...it’s good to sit on my back porch, pop open a cold one, and click on my recommended smoky ribs video! Life is good!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks Nathan, I really appreciate that brother!

[@CookingWithRy]

That is a fine result from all your effort with this bacon. Just utter deliciousness :)

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

It truly was Ry. Thanks for checking the video out, I appreciate it!

[@BallisticBBQ]

Rus, those chunks of porky goodness were absolutely beautiful brother! Fantastic job! Cheers!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks Greg, I appreciate you stopping by and watching brother!

[@brianveestrom6784]

Russ, props for making this dish from scratch and making it a 2 part video. You are a stronger individual that I am, I cannot bring myself to cook with 1 cup of the black label. Red label maybe, but not the black. Looks fantastic.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

I bought the large 1.75 liter of JD so it didn’t look like I was using that much lol! But seriously the flavor of these are amazing so it was well worth sacrificing 1cup 👍

[@SouthernCoastalCookingTM]

Great job Rus! I know those where good bacon burnt ends are a real treat and that whisky glaze really added some pop

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks Joe! Brother you need to try this JD glaze! It would make a bologna sandwich taste fantastic ;)

[@thegalleryBBQ]

Russ pretty awesome looking Burnt Ends. thanks for the video and HOW TO.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Your welcome and thanks for watching!

[@brian48williams]

looks absolutely amazing russ, i loved my pork belly burnt ends, bacon burnt ends i have no doubt even better.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Brian, I was amazed at the flavor, but that JD glaze played a big part I promise you!

[@robertweber3140]

You did not disappoint. Thanks Rus!.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks Robert!

[@Grylla87]

Rus you know this New Yorker luvs your work and videos.... Keep up the good work bro.... Proud of you man!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thank you D A, I appreciate it man!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Man oh man that looked so good Russ! That was an explosion of flavor in your mouth.

[@EverydayBBQ]

Those looked delectable, Brother. The time and effort is always worth it when it comes to cooking!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Mike, these were amazing brother! Everyone loved them. Yes, with results like this, it's well worth the time and effort for sure. Just can't buy anything like this anywhere that I know of.

[@SmokedReb]

Bacon Burnt Ends??? My life is now complete, thanks for sharing Rus!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks for watching Brian!

[@learntobbq]

Great video like always - This is one I got to try.

[@cjahlert]

Picked up 3lbs of slab bacon today. Thanks for the recipe for the rub. Can't wait to try it and the glaze too but all I have is four rose's single barrel bourbon.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

The glaze will have a different flavor if you don't use JD, but I would imagine it would still taste ok. Let me know what you end up with.

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Bacon burnt ends. That looks totally awesome. Cheers, Russ!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks Dwayne! I appreciate you checking it out!

[@duanewilson3941]

I saw Malcom do this as well and I wanted to quick make some but I couldn't find any bacon that wasn't already cut. Maybe I'll try a dedicated butcher shop. I suppose you could take cut bacon and put it on a skewer.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Or you can make your own bacon slab 👍

[@TheFlatlander440]

Those pork belly burnt ends looked delicioso Rus. I'm def making that Jack Daniels glaze this weekend and trying it on some pork ribs. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Hey William, thanks for checking out the video! The JD glaze will be great on pork ribs! Enjoy!

[@jimelmore9728]

That glaze looks amazing.

[@ozziemanjarrez5124]

[@benbryce2788]

thats an awesome job brother

[@Z4thura]

That reaction when you first try it, hilarious :D I've always maintained that pork belly is the absolute king of meats.

[@lyleswavel320]

Yea, that's some awesome food, sweet bacon burnt ends

[@danielboyd3779]

Those looked amazing! Great video!

[@thebaldchef14]

Russ homemade Jack Daniels burnt ends, these recipe looks great! Nice job!

Thanks Glenn, I appreciate it and thanks for stopping by man!

[@THEREALSHOWBBQ]

Dang bro those look awesome. Pure pork goodness right there. I'm loving that JD sauce. Also, I really like the new production of your videos. Awesome crystal clear shots.

[@ericousleyjr9119]

Lol Rus your reaction after you taste tested had me Rollin lolol!! HAD to be amazing. Looks delicious brother. Great job as usual.

[@daddydutchbbq]

Very nicely done Rus ! Love Pork belly burnt ends ! Love making them more ! That SnS Kamado and you seem to be getting along well !

Hi Russ bacon candy Goodness absolutely mouthwatering.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks! I appreciate ya checking it out!

[@aaronkarr9430]

Great video! I made this once using Malcom Reed's video recipe you mentioned. Can't wait to try yours too!!

[@grantfoster9099]

I just had to make some bacon while watching this! See what you done! You Got Me Hungry! Lol Great Video!!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

LOL! Bacon is great, but I think you would like this even better, or you could make this glaze I did, and take sliced bacon and grill it till almost done and put this glaze on it! Now I bet that would turn a few heads when they bit into it :D

[@grantfoster9099]

@@SmokyRibsBBQ I be like while you slicing the bacon before you turned it into something "can I take a bite😂

[@davidhinson5010]

Man I love that knife! From NC, keep it going.

[@calihuntfish7163]

Whew this looked so good! Gonna have to try it ASAP!

[@progers5019]

Those burnt ends looked delicious, as well as the JD sauce. I could go for some of that.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

They were excellent Phi! Thanks for checking it out!

[@GreenhornBBQbeer]

Nice use of that Black Lable! I'm thirsty more than hungry now!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Lol, I hear ya 😂

[@l.k.b545]

Could you substitute honey with the cane syrup?

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

I suppose you could

[@christopherbiegel9553]

These were probably a little too sweet for me personally but I love the idea. I might try it with more of a soy or miso base (though salt might be an issue). Keep up the great work.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

When I first bit into these, too sweet didn't even remotely come to mind. The bacon is more savory than sweet, and the ingredients in the rub played out well without an overly sweet taste. The Jack Daniels sauce was perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. I think you would be pleasantly surprised. I'm not real big on sweet anything and to me, overall it was a great balance.

[@BillGreenAZ]

I really like the FOGO charcoal. That looked like a whole lot of work putting that rub on the cubes. Would it be easier to put the rub in a big plastic bag and add the cubes and then shake the whole thing?

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Depends on your definition of work 👍

[@kyletyre2282]

Good to see a local Mississippi guy on here.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Been on here 7 years this month. Always great to hear from locals!

[@beers-jackofbbq]

This looks great! I have 20 pounds of pork belly curing in the fridge now, this is day 2. I do a hot smoke on mine and my rub is very similar, but a few less ingredients! I am going to watch your hot vs cold smoke video next chance I get.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks for checking out the video, I appreciate it!

[@kevinclayton9891]

You know I gotta watch my man Rus tear it up. Thanks for uploading

Those looked really good Russ.. That jack Daniels sent those over the top

[@BBQiT]

nice work again brotha!! Love my Kamado!!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks so much, I sure appreciate it! Yeah, Kamado grills come in so handy for so many different things.

[@crazygamer-mr6nr]

Dang that looks good

[@brenthildenbrand7556]

Where did you get the slow n sear for a kamado?

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

It’s a Kamado made by Slow n Sear and comes with it.

[@germancortazar5981]

What is the purpose of the water in the grill?

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Adds moisture to the pit to help prevent meat from drying out

[@BronsonWally]

This must be a new camera looks great !!

[@4seasonsbbq]

Wow Rus, I've always wanted to make some pork belly burnt ends but like you said the bacon ones are a step above. Those looked absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work my friend

[@handcannon1388]

Wow! Those looked really killer, Russ. Did that little pan of meat last even an hour? Now the guys from work will want you to take them a batch of bacon burnt ends, too.

[@HeavyMetalMike]

Looks delicious, nice looking glaze too. I'm going to give this whole thing a try. Small bit of feedback, the video color is great on all shots but the one right over the cutting board, that one looks kind of pale and washed out. Only reason it stood out is every other shot has nice vibrant color.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Thanks, I appreciate you checking it out! Inside and outside I use light that is available from house lights and sunlight coming through the window. Things can change as light changes. I use to use lights, but hey, it's youtube ;)

[@AdamS-nv5oo]

Where do you find jd chunks? Never can find them reasonable.

[@AdamS-nv5oo]

Also, looks great

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

The JD wood chips are much easier to find but if you search for the chunks online there are a few sources

I umm...well, touched myself......A LOT my gawd man that looks insane good

Thanks for checking it out Chocolate Mint!

[@kevinroberts361]

Are you kidding me ! Why the heck did you cut that slab of bacon in half, and not cook them ALL ?? That's a rookie mistake Rus if I've ever seen one. Is this your first rodeo ? Haha !! Looked awesome at midnight, dang you again!

[@crunchmunch5282]

Be honest.............could you feel your arteries hardening? That looked like candy for sure..going to have to try this. How did the bacon turn out after you fried it up?

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Lol, no. I couldn’t get over how darn good this was. Haven’t fried the bacon yet. I just shot this video 3 days ago but I have made this same bacon many times and it’s delicious. Much better than anything you will find at the grocery store guaranteed

[@crunchmunch5282]

@@SmokyRibsBBQ I have always been going to grab some pork belly at the locker and try making my own bacon but I think the burnt ends looks better than the bacon. Good video, thanks, going to have to give this a try. Love your videos.

[@handcannon1388]

@@crunchmunch5282 You could always grab a really big slab, or two smaller ones, and try both. Heck, you could even coarse grind a little and add it to some ground beef (or venison) and make burgers. That seems to be getting more common now, too.

[@stevemacculloch2793]

You are not nice at all. I just made a big ol’ribeye for supper and thought that I was full. Nice eats indeed, I’m hungry again.

[@williamparr3787]

Russ why don’t you build you a smoke house behind your house buddy?

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

I was just mentioning doing that on my last live feed. If I ever get the time, I do plan on doing exactly that.

[@nathan0717]

It pains me to see a WHOLE CUP of jack get reduced down like that! AA meetings, here I come!

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

One taste of these and you will totally get over it 😂 Plus I bought the 1.75 liter so I didn’t experience that 👍

[@brianthompson3543]

such a shame that matador is out of business.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Yeah I hated hearing that! We just had a place open up 10 minutes from my house that sells very high quality meat. That is something we have never had around here and they are doing great business right out of the gate!
