Smithfield Smoke'NFast, a provider of fully cooked, smoked meats for barbecue and beyond, expanded its authentic barbecue lineup with three trending menu items: Shredded Beef Birria, Chopped Beef Brisket and Pork Shoulder Burnt Ends. The new products add to the brand's innovative collection of scratch-quality meats that enable any foodservice operator to feel like an authentic barbecue joint or incorporate versatile smokehouse flavor into global dishes without requiring additional equipment or labor.

Smoke'NFast is a favorite among operators for its high-quality, versatile collection of fully cooked and smoked meats that are ready to heat and serve in minutes. With both sauced and sauceless options, Smoke'NFast makes it easy for chefs to add their own culinary creativity. Smoke'NFast continues to innovate with products that tap into trends and deliver valuable labor-saving benefits to operators. 

New Products:

- Shredded Beef Birria: Named the "hottest trend in tacos" by Nation's Restaurant News, Birria is a Mexican stew meat that features savory Mexican spices and is cooked low and slow until the meat is meltingly tender. Perfect for Quesabirria Tacos, or served simply in a bowl with pickled onions, queso fresco, cilantro, Smoke'NFast Birria adds effortless global flavor.

- Chopped Beef Brisket: Made from premium beef brisket, slow-smoked for deep, rich barbecue flavor, Smoke'NFast Chopped Beef Brisket is juicy, tender and packed with bold, smoky goodness. Whether served as a classic brisket sandwich, loaded onto nachos or piled high in a BBQ bowl, this ready-to-use brisket makes menu innovation effortless.

- Pork Shoulder Burnt Ends: Crafted from tender, slow smoked pork shoulder and expertly caramelized for deep, savory flavor, Smoke'NFast Pork Shoulder Burnt Ends are for sandwiches, sliders, loaded fries, BBQ platters or tacos. Expect rich, authentic barbecue flavor with the convenience and consistency foodservice operations demand.

The Smoke'NFast lineup includes legendary barbecue favorites like ribs, pulled pork and brisket, as well as global specialties, including carnitas, barbacoa and osso buco.
