Ever heard of popcorn shrimp? Texas Gourmet popcorn is like that but little nuggets of smoked tender beef brisket instead. If it's a good cut of meat and truly smoked well, sauce is not needed. 😏

Virtual SchiitrMeet January 2021:
The Triumphant Return of Mike Moffat


Yep, that's right. You don't get me. Nor Tyler, Ivana, or Dave. You get Mike. And Mike alone. So if he's uncorked, well, that's just how it goes.

What does this mean? Now's your chance to ask Mike about all the digital stuff that you've been asking me about (and I've been saying, "heck, I don't know," for a while now.) Of course an Urd (transport) update is part of what he'll talk about. You'll also be able to ask him anything else you want...this is an "ask me anything" event!" Of course, Mike may choose not to answer your question, but that's entirely up to him. Please send questions in advance to Denise Martin at denise@schiit.com.

Also, we will be streaming on BOTH the detested (by you) Facebook and on the Schiit YouTube channel simultaneously, because we heard you about the Facebook-only thing. I'm afraid there are no giveaways this time.

So send your questions to denise@schiit.com and join us for the first SchiitrMeet of 2021:

The Triumphant Return of Mike Moffat
Wednesday, January 13, 4pm, PST


Ask Me Anything (AMA), Q&A format

(Yes, we will be giving an update on the Transport)
Send questions to Denise. denise@schiit.com

Streaming on:

I hope you can make it!

All the best,

Jason Stoddard

This is great news, Jason! Thanks for sharing, and thanks to Mike for participating.

Actually, that sounds pretty good. I think that you should consider marketing it

Or at least sharing it. With, you know, people he likes and friends and such.

Just looking out for the rest of you since I won't get any... :smile: :smile:

If you can formulate a decent "popcorn brisket" recipe you'll make a fortune at the TX State Fair. I'll be your first customer. :beerchug:

Waiting for @bcowen to chime in and tell us that "popcorn NC BBQ" is better, but I have to remind him that NC BBQ already tastes like unseasoned popcorn that requires copious amounts of sauce to make it palatable.

The burnt ends thing has made its way from Chicago to KC to TX and I still don't get it. Requires heavy sauce just to digest. They're generally so tough that, IMO, they're not good for much else than for flavoring other dishes such as pots of beans and soups. Maybe I just haven't had a decent batch yet.

Shhhhh. It's a secret, but YES!!!!! :D

Do you need some alone time to re-evaluate this?? Do you WANT a timeout?!?!?

I think 'burnt ends' is an apt description for all meat cooked in TX. Great beef, but it has to be sent to Oklahoma to be cooked properly. :smile:

LOL! To me, the best popcorn is whichever brand takes the least amount of time in the microwave. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Perhaps you just need a good batch, but they are my favorite part of a brisket. A burnt-ends sandwich has my mouth watering right now. I also LOOOVE pork burnt ends, which are little nuggets of barbequed pork belly deliciousness.

I just said that to throw them off the scent while I finalize plans for the State Fair introduction. :wink:


** Actually --the longest line at the previous Texas State Fair was the line for the Burnt Ends. It was very good and not tough at all.

I am not from Chicago - actually from a town 120 miles north of St. Louis - but I have spent a lot of time up in Chi Town. Burnt ends and the proper way to eat hot dogs are Chicago's gift to the rest of the world. You are welcome. :)
