    Ant,
    Great video! Love the beard! “Fat with a pink beanie!” - hilarious! Back to you roots with your humor segments. You provided so much amazing advice here! So now all I have to do is open a bbq restaurant and then you will immortalize me with an Ant video!
    I have seen people do L & L burger, but I did not notice that they rest it after the smoke and before the sear it. Does this really do anything?
    Keep up the great content!👍

    • @SouthernsBBQ

      The longer the rest, the more time you can spend getting a good sear without over cooking it.

      thanks Ben! hope it helps people get better and open their own spot one day! It's just how i do smoked burgers. Like southerns bbq said, i think it just lets you get a better crust while staying at that beautiful 145-150 internal.

    • @AntsBBQCookout
      @AntsBBQCookout  3 місяці тому +1

      Texas BBQ spots don’t usually sell them. Usually give the brisket burnt ends to the line for free. Try the pork belly burnt ends next time, they’re amazing.

    • @doctajuice
      @doctajuice 3 місяці тому +1

      Yeah that's on you. You get like 4 burnt end pieces out of each brisket they can't sell that as a dish you'd be out all the time. Matter of fact, yeah, they were out 😂😂😂

    Im sorry, I tried Moo's with two of my buddies and we all disliked this "Michelin" bbq spot. Food was unsalted, bland, tasted the same. We got the party spread and were so disappointed. Pulled pork was covered in sauce and just tasted like sauce with no pork flavor. Was more of a saucy mushy thing rather than a good pulled pork. The best thing there was the Banana Pudding. Next best thing was the sausage but dang we expected a hell of a lot more than what we paid for especially since it was touted as authentic Texas Style bbq.

    • @AntsBBQCookout
      @AntsBBQCookout  3 місяці тому +1

      Dang, my tray was really good. I’ve been to some places in the top 50 list and had some bad bbq too. It’s hit or miss when you’re making bbq everyday. It’s a 14+ hour process for some of the meat and if something goes wrong during the cook.. that’s it.

    Saying that having burnt ends on a menu is a marketing tactic and that they're pork belly means that you've never been to kansas city where the best bbq in the world is. Lol. Do that then come and talk to me.
