This recipe transforms traditional smoked brisket burnt ends into an easy oven-cooked dish that delivers smoky, caramelized, tender burnt ends without the need for a smoker.
Use a brisket point for best results due to its fat content. Cover with foil during the initial roast to keep meat juicy. Rest brisket before cubing to redistribute juices. Stir burnt ends during final bake to prevent sticking and promote even caramelization. Adjust sauce thickness by lowering temperature or adding water if it burns. For smoky flavor without a smoker, add liquid smoke to the sauce.
