Things are heating up this spring at [Smokey Mo’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/savory-sundae) TX [BBQ](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/battle-of-the-beggin), with the debut of the brand's new [Pork Belly Burnt Ends](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pulled-pork-sundae).

Available from all 18 Smokey Mo’s locations throughout Central Texas, the new Pork Belly Burnt Ends dish gives guests a delicious new way to enjoy the smoky sweet flavor of pork belly. The new dish consists of bite-sized pieces of melt-in-your-mouth pork belly that's been smoked low and slow after being coated with a sweet and savory rub. As Craig Haley, CEO of Smokey Mo’s, explains, "Our customers love trying new items, and Pork Belly Burnt Ends expands our offering with a more decadent smoked meat that compliments all our options."

The new Pork Belly Burnt Ends can be ordered with any sandwich, chopped baker, or a number of other menu options.
