Burnt Ends Brisket Hash — 2015 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival
We’re throwing it back to 2015 with this first one! Way back when, Smokehouse: Barbecues and Brews was the tasty booth you could find in the American Adventure pavilion and they introduced a dish that was both delicious and thrifty — the Burnt Ends Brisket Hash. Hashes were all the rage at the time but it remains a great (and yummy) way to use up those “burnt ends” that result from low and slow-smoked brisket.
So if you find yourself barbecuing Texas-style — and really, who doesn’t?? — then give this one a try to use up leftovers.

Shrimp and Grits — 2022 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival
Seafood can be a great way to bring everyone together over a meal (especially if the dish is based off a Disney recipe)!
And, the whole family can come together to help make the Shrimp and Grits from EPCOT Sunshine Griddle!
Ingredients
Serves 4
Brown Gravy
- 2 tablespoons whole unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- 1/2 cup finely diced yellow onion
- 1/2 cup finely diced green peppers
- 1/2 cup finely diced celery
- 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 4 tablespoons tomato paste
Grits
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup stone ground grits
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 2 dashes (1/8 teaspoon) tabasco sauce
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into pieces
- 1/2 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
Shrimp
- 1/2 pound cleaned and deveined jumbo shrimp (about 12 each)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cajun seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/8 teaspoon dried oregano
Corn Salsa
- 2 ears fresh local corn
- 1/8 cup diced red onions
- 1/8 cup diced serrano peppers
- 1/8 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions:
For Brown Gravy
- In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and whish in the flour a little at a time to make a roux. Lower the heat and allow the roux to cook until it is dark brown and has a nutty aroma, about 10 minutes. Stir the roux frequently to avoid burned spots or uneven coloring. Set aside when finished for later use.
- In a heavy bottomed sauce pot, saute the onions, celery and peppers in oil until slightly caramelized. Season with the cajun seasoning. Add the tomato paste and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring often to avoid burning.
- Add the chicken stock to the vegetables and bring to a simmer.
- Incorporate a few tablespoons of the hot liquid to the roux to make a paste.
- Add the paste to the vegetables and broth and mix well to avoid any lumps.
- Continue to cook at a medium-low temperature at a simmer until thick enough to coat the back of the spoon.
For Grits
- Bring broth, salt, and tabasco to a boil; whisk in grits. Reduce heat to medium and cook until soft and creamy, about 45 minutes.
- Whisk in butter and cheddar cheese to taste. Serve immediately.
For Shrimp
- Make the shrimp rub and place in an airtight container until needed to season shrimp.
- Heat a skillet to medium-high with a little bit of oil until the oil begins to simmer.
- In a bowl, season the shrimp liberally with the shrimp rub. Place into the skillet and cook until just pink and starting to curl, about 2-3 minutes per side.
For Corn Salsa
- On a grill or grill pan, char the serrano peppers and the corn until all sides have color on them.
- Cool down until they can be easily handled. Remove the skins from the peppers and cut the corn from the husks. Chop the serranos and mix in a bowl with the corn.
- Dice the rest of the vegetables to the same size of the corn nuggets and mix in the bowl well. Add lime juice and salt, mix together and allow to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Flavors will develop as it sits.
To Serve
Divide grits among 4 serving bowls. Place the shrimp on top of the grits and ladle on about 1-2 ounces of gravy. Top with 1 tablespoon of corn relish. Garnish with chopped green onions if you like.
After you put the whole thing together, you’re going to want to save some of those leftovers for another day (it’s that tasty).
