So the question is, can you find good barbeque in New York. The question should be, can you find REAL BBQ in New York. Sure there are plenty of places where you can find ribs and even a pulled pork sandwich. But is it rubbed and smoked over wood for hours or is it simply cooked and slathered in sweet sticky bbq sauce. Chances are its the latter, and its a food service or chain restaurant.
Real BBQ in New York can be found in the small shops, sometimes an old butcher shop that smokes their butcher items on the side. The items should be unique, with a flavor that reflects the pitmaster's personality. And bbq is not just ribs...its pork, chicken, brisket, sausage, and of course bacon.
Also, you may have to venture out of Manhattan. Queens is a great place to find BBQ. Bayside, Queens is the home of 3BROS BBQ, and it can go toe to toe with any other borough when it comes to smoked meats.
