I bought two packages of these, based on the good reviews. Since I has home alone that week I ended up eating 6 meals from the first package. They were good, but not fabulous, so I sent the second package home with family when they came over. I just didn't want 6 more meals. They weren't bad, but just not up to what I'd expected. And maybe I'm spoiled by a local place where I've gotten burnt ends in the past.

Many of the negative reviews are exaggerations. You're not going to feed to your dog or throw in the trash. We fully expected the sauce packet to subtract from the net weight. Overall, this product is OK. It's just way overpriced. I would buy again at $8.

I looked forward to trying this product so I was a little disappointed to find the sauce was too sweet for our tastes. A small percentage (10% ?) of the pieces were too fatty to eat. Despite these criticisms, I'd buy it again but use my own sauce.

This is the first time I tried a ready to eat bbq beef brisket. I followed the easy to read instructions how to prepare the beef brisket burnt ends. It did not disappoint me. It is tender in the inside with a crispiness outside. Though I did not read the whole package but I think the meat is from a high quality grade. The bbq sauce is perfect compliment the beef brisket burnt ends. This product is perfect for any occasions.

I travel to Texas a lot for work and burnt ends are a staple at any good bbq joint. These did not disappoint. They were not fatty at all and the bbq sauce had a great twang to it. I would definitely recommend these to someone looking for a quick bbq fix out of the freezer.

Got this to try once and was happily surprised. I used my microwave thaw cycle for nine minutes and broke the frozen pieces apart. Nuked for 90 seconds on high, stirred and added the sauce. Nuked 2 more minutes on high and was ready to eat. This is not what I'd call true burnt ends from the flap of a brisket but rather brisket pieces, most of which have a nice bark on one side. The pieces are thick and moist. The included sauce is very tasty, sort of a cross of Kansas City and Memphis style sauce. I will definitely buy more.

Very tasty! The included BBQ sauce is great! I put them in crockpot on high for 3 hours and some of the fat melted away as it does on brisket. I think next time I would broil a bit to crisp up any fat and the edges. Biggest complaint is that it was not much meat for $20.

This product is "iffy" it can either be very tender or nothing but gristle. Seems to not have a middle ground. First time serving it, it was quite tender. Second time there were only gristle chunks and very little meat. We all ended up tossing out our meal. I will try it again to see if that was simply an "off" batch because the first time we tried it it was quite good.

We enjoyed the flavor of both the meat and the sauce. The smoky flavor was not overpowering. Some pieces were tough and there was some pieces of fat but majority of the meat was tender. Definitely was an fast and easy main dish for weeknight suppers.

Pretty good. I did encounter one good-sized hunk of inedible gristle, but most were well-balanced between fat and lean with good meaty flavor. The sauce is nothing to write home about, but since it's a separate packet, you can use whatever you like. About half the price of burnt ends in a good local BBQ joint, so it's a decent deal.
