Burnt ends are flavorful pieces of meat cut from the point half of a smoked brisket. A traditional part of Kansas City barbecue, burnt ends are considered a delicacy in barbecue cooking. Either the entire brisket is cooked whole, then the point end removed and cooked further, or the point and flat are separated prior to cooking. Due to the higher fat content of the brisket point, it takes longer to fully cook to tender and render out fat and collagen. This longer cooking gave rise to the name "burnt ends". Sometimes when the flat is done, the point is returned to the smoker for further cooking. Some cooks re-season the point at this time.
Kansas City style burnt ends are usually served cubed with sauce either on top or on the side. A "proper" burnt end should display a modest amount of "bark" or char on at least one side. Burnt ends can be served alone (sometimes smothered in barbecue sauce) or in sandwiches, as well as in a variety of other dishes, including baked beans and gumbo.
At the end of the day you are worn and too tired to sleep
But then you do dream of wonderful things
That you might do, right on through to the next day
And then you wake up
The sun's on your face
You're stretchin' while you're sayin'
It's a brand new day
It's a brand new day and the sky is clear
So let's come together, everybody cheer
Come out people from everywhere
Let's see your faces, the day we'll share
Celebrate a brand new day everyday!
Call out to the workers and the children in the schools
It's a day of celebration so put down your tools and
Celebrate a brand new day everyday
Come see the mountains and come see the shores
Mother nature is calling so come climb aboard to
Celebrate a brand new day everyday
At the end of the day there is no doubt you are worn out
But then you do dream of wonderful things
That you might do the next day
And then you wake up
The sun's on your face
You're stretchin' while you're saying'
It's a brand new day

There have been at least seven attacks in six weeks in which trains were torched by suspected arsonists, and infrastructure damaged and stolen by vandals. Metrorail has confirmed that there are only 37 trains in operation in the Western Cape to accommodate about 500 000 passenger trips a day.
Nonthando Mendela from Strand has to get up at 3.45am in the hope she gets to work on time. She knows it's a daily lottery at best. On top of it, Mendela is still traumatised from being the victim of a robbery on a Metrorail train last month.
âIt was a Sunday afternoon at about 4pm when the train suddenly came to a standstill just outside Parow station. Five guys and a girl robbed about 20 people in our carriage. They took my wallet, my Pick n Pay shopping and mainly peopleâs cellphones.
âIt felt like the incident had been planned. I was so shaken. I sent an email to Metrorail on the same day, but I still havenât had a response.â
CPUT student Tshepo Lephallo has no idea what Metrorail has in store for his future. Living in Somerset West, he has little choice but to travel by train.
âThe arsonists are very selfish because there are a lot of people who take the train. Prasa (Passenger Rail Agency) has to improve their services and protection because they have to take into account that a lot of people take the train,â Lephallo said.
"Who really stands to benefit from this insanity?â it is being asked.
With the damage to train infrastructure growing by the millions and the service rapidly deteriorating, the law enforcement agencies, Prasa and Metrorail need to find out fast who is behind "train capture".
