Char Bar’s Burnt Heaven is not so much a sandwich as a BBQ platter between buns.
First, there’s the sausage — pork butt and chuck tender with garlic and other seasonings. Then you add the burnt ends, which have been smoked 12 hours overnight with hickory wood, said Char Bar executive chef Drew Prewitt. Add ‘slaw, fried jalapenos and chipotle BBQ mayo and you’ve got a Burnt Heaven.
Of course, when you pick it up half the sandwich will fall out. But to Star reporter Jonathan Shorman, that’s half the fun – there’s practically half a meal remaining after you eat it.
The flavors are grand. The smoke from the burnt ends, along with the spice of the sausage and the jalapenos give the thing some heat that’s balanced by the creaminess of the slaw and mayo. It’s not overly smothered in sauce – the meat is the star, Shorman says.
