FAQs About Midwood Smokehouse Burnt Ends
What are burnt ends?
Burnt ends are cubed pieces of brisket taken from the point cut of the meat. These pieces are smoked and caramelized in BBQ sauce, resulting in a sweet, rich flavor with a slightly crispy exterior and tender interior. It’s a BBQ delicacy that adds a smoky, savory bite to your meal.
How is the Small Plate different from the Large?
The Small Plate serves about 8 ounces of burnt ends, with one side of your choice, making it a lighter option. In contrast, the Large Plate offers 12 ounces of burnt ends, with two sides included, offering a more generous portion for a fuller meal.
Do I get hushpuppies with this plate?
Yes, hushpuppies and pickles come with the plate by default. These traditional sides add both crunch and tang, complementing the rich flavors of the burnt ends. However, if you’d prefer not to have them, you can request to remove them.
What sides can I pick?
The Small Plate comes with one side, and you have a variety of choices to suit your taste. Options include Mac & Cheese, Fries, Collard Greens, Baked Beans, Coleslaw, Texas Toast, Steamed Broccoli, or Sweet Fries, among others. You can mix and match to customize your BBQ experience.
Can I substitute a salad?
Yes, you can upgrade to a Side Chopped Salad or Create Your Own Salad for an additional $2.00. This is a great way to add some greens to your meal if you’re looking for a lighter, fresher side.
Is the cola BBQ sauce sweet?
Yes, the cola BBQ sauce is rich and tangy, with a subtle caramelized sweetness that complements the smoky flavor of the burnt ends. It’s one of the signature sauces at Midwood, offering a unique balance of sweet and savory.
Is it gluten-free?
The burnt ends themselves are gluten-free, but be aware that some sides at Midwood Smokehouse, such as those with breading or sauce, may contain gluten. Always confirm with the staff if you have specific dietary restrictions.
How many calories with a side?
The calories in the Small Plate can range between 1,000–1,100 calories, depending on the side chosen. Rich sides like mac & cheese will add more calories, while lighter options like steamed broccoli will keep the total count lower.
Is this portion good for sharing?
The Small Plate is best for one person but can be shared as part of a multi-item meal, especially if you’re dining with others and ordering multiple plates. It offers a satisfying portion for solo diners, but may not be enough for two unless paired with other dishes.
Can I order this for delivery?
Yes, you can enjoy the Small Plate of burnt ends from the comfort of your home by ordering through Midwood Smokehouse Delivery®. It’s available in select areas, so you can enjoy the same great taste from wherever you are.
