What exactly is a burnt end?

If you have lived in or visited KC for any amount of time, then you know we love our BBQ. But beyond just BBQ, we love our burnt ends! 

 Have you enjoyed this KC BBQ staple? If so, do you even know what it is? Well, turns out, it depends on where you eat. 

 Here's a run down of some of the bigger name BBQ joints in KC and what goes in to their burnt ends:  

 Arthur Bryant's: burned edges of brisket in 1972; now in 2019 random brisket pieces double smoked and sauced

Jones Bar-B-Q: fatty tip of brisket smoked and rendered down

Joe's: fatty halves of brisket that is cubed and smoked

Q39: thin half of brisket cubed and grilled over oak

Gates: crispy, barky, fatty pieces of brisket blackened

 Jack Stack: morsels of beef or pork hickory fired and cut into bite sized pieces

 Are you brave enough to try to make your own burnt ends? If so, this recipe claims to be Kansas City Style Burnt Ends. Here's a link if you want to give it a go and make your own. For me, I'll stick to the pros and their burnt ends!

Tricks for Those Hard to Paint Areas in Your Home

While some DIY projects seem like they should be left for the pros, painting doesn’t have to be one of them. Basic painting seems easy enough, but sometimes we run into those hard-to-paint areas and regret not hiring a professional. Instead of hanging up the towel, try out these tricks for those spots and see if you can finish your project all on your own (and save some money in the process!) Painting Window Trim Painting the wood diving panes and sashes on windows can seem daunting at first. Most people think that lining your windows with painters tape will help, but that is usually just a waste of time. Instead, just paint away! This is the one time it is okay to get a little paint outside of your target area. When paint gets on the glass, just allow it to dry and as soon as it does, scrape it off with a razor blade.
