Checkers & Rally's adds hickory-smoked beef brisket offerings to its menu for the first time in the company's history.

A portion of profits will be donated to Eighty-Seven & Running, an organization Kelce founded that provides mentorship and opportunities to underprivileged youth.

This offering is a collaboration of savory, pit-smoked brisket chili, melted cheese and hand-cut fries.

The limited-time brisket menu lineup includes tacos, nachos, quesadilla, and queso, all featuring hickory slow-smoked brisket.

In recent years, the brisket has become so much more sought after that, as a meat scientist acting in the interest of consumers, I have been challenged to seek alternative beef cuts that could be used in the smoker.

In many circles, if you’re talking versatile and delicious, the conversation turns to a cut that is humble yet elegant: the beef brisket.
