This barbecue special from KCPT and the Recommended Daily tells the story of Kansas City's most iconic food: burnt ends. It dives into the history and technique behind the food that was called brownies before writer Calvin Trillin helped put them on the map. Viewers will want to have a plate of burnt ends by their side when host Jonathan Bender digs a fork into a heaping pile of smoky, crispy hunks of brisket. Burnt Legend is a mash-up of a food show, travel show, and cooking show. We'll give the audience insight into smoking techniques, a bit of access into the pits around Kansas City, and have some of the most interesting voices in barbecue define the city's most recognizable dish.
