Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    Trim excess fat from the beef brisket or pork belly and cut into 1-inch cubes.

  2. 2

    Make the Rub

    In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Coat the meat cubes liberally with the rub.

  3. 3

    Add Liquid Smoke

    Drizzle the liquid smoke over the seasoned meat and toss to coat evenly.

Smoking

  1. 4

    Set Up Smoker

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C) using your choice of wood chips (hickory or oak work well).

  2. 5

    Smoke the Meat

    Place the seasoned meat cubes in the smoker and smoke for about 3-4 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 190°F (88°C).

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Add BBQ Sauce

    Once the meat is done smoking, remove it from the smoker and toss the cubes in BBQ sauce.

  2. 7

    Caramelize the Meat

    Return the sauced meat to the smoker for an additional 30 minutes to caramelize the BBQ sauce.

  3. 8

    Assemble the Sliders

    Place a generous portion of burnt ends on each slider bun and top with coleslaw, pickles, or jalapenos as desired.
