This place is a meat trough and its AMAZING

Ras Malice

Everything was quite delicious, but RIBS are the shining star of the meats. Bringpatience with you--the seating situation is a free for all. Sides: Broccoli salad is a go+tasty pickles . Will return

The Corcoran Group

For BBQ and Meat lovers! Awesome Brisket , Pork Ribs and Berkshire Belly. The Baked Beans and Potato Salad are rockin. Get a pitcher of Sly Fox Rauch.

Cole Kennedy

The patio is the perfect place to enjoy some barbecue and craft beer on a warm afternoon. The meat is a bit spicy , but that's a good thing in my book .

Brian B

Genuinely incredible BBQ in NY. Not to be confused with "good BBQ FOR NY" - it's actually amazing. Pulled pork is a staple and their specials and ribs are always outstanding. Get a beer while in line

Chris Weber

Great bbq , of course. Great variety of fresh draft beers - very nice and friendly stuff . Always a must when in NYC. Biggest surprise (recommended): the cider

Emiliano Viscarra

One of the best places I found for eating BBQ . It's my favorite along with Mighty Quinns. Only downside is that you need to wait in line and then find a seat so it's annoying for big groups.

Brian Strauss

Kind of a “best of” bbq style. Delicious. My brisket had a few nice crispy bits in it. Ribs don’t need it at all, but there are at least 3 sauces to choose from on the tables.

samantha hankins

I love you. Amazing juicy BBQ . Great sauces. Usually come with a friend and get at least a half pound of each thing. Without a doubt my favorite place in NYC. Get there early, lines are standard.

PureWow

1. Wait in line while drinking spiked sweet tea . 2. Order brisket and burnt-ends baked beans . 3. Douse everything in spicy mustard sauce . 4. Happily roll yourself home. Read more

Infatuation: "...pretty much always have brisket & pork ribs . Order both & ask for a lean cut of brisket , which crumbles as you cut into it, as well as plenty of sides, like burnt end baked beans ."

Dominik L.

Beautiful location, awesome food (ask for a mixed plate) and friendly staff which would not loose their coolness if they would give their customers a smile from time to time! :)

Kimmie Ohh

Meats are priced by the half pound. Get the beef brisket , pork ribs , pulled pork shoulder , pork belly , pork pastrami loin & pork spicy sausage - get all the meats!

Mara Lecocq

Great food, communal tables , easy going and cool vibe. Probably went there 8 times. Always bring tourist friends there or just go there cause of craving

Vito Tartaglia

Averaging $25/pd, a perfect bbq meat that will bring you in heaven. The pork belly is highly suggested. Also good beers on tap . A must for meat lovers.

Stefan Erschwendner

Amazing BBQ joint and craft beer selection . Pulled pork , brisket and chicken were awesome

Jose Torres

Order 1/2 pound per person and you can get 1/4 pound of different meats to sample a few items. The beans and the broccoli salad are awesome!! All meats are fantastic!!

Men's Health Mag

It’s a former ironworker’s shop, refitted with long picnic tables , giant smokers, and a bourbon bar . And it serves some of the best BBQ north of the Mason-Dixon. Read more

Philipp Nass

Everything at this spot is to die for! Great bbq . Get the Sauerkraut , too! Only problem is that I always leave with a food coma ????

Village Voice

Smoky as a brush fire on the prairie. The boutique meat selection is quirky and variable. Sides like potato salad and crunchy pickles are better than even Texas barbecues . Read more

Serious Eats

An ever-popular neighborhood spot with plenty of good beer to go along with the 'cue. The specials cuts, like pork cheeks and lamb belly , are by far the best.

Nicholas Lambert

Half a pound of brisket , half a pound pulled pork , sausage and BBQ beans + potato salad - enough for 3 of us to share but could've eaten twice as much. Soooo tasty.

Yanin De Jesus

I love the belly, sausage and beans. The pulled pork and ribs are great. This is what my bf and I get all the time:2 sausagesSmall beansPickles1/3 lb belly1/3 brisket1/4 pulled pork

Eater

Once a trendsetter, now a member of the Williamsburg establishment, Fette Sau serves up a rotating menu of pork and beef ribs that leads some to tag it as the best BBQ in NYC. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

Mikahla Vicino

Brisket w/ a side of baked beans and cornbread 10/10. Grab some beer , from 1/2 pint to gallon, at the bar to wash it all down.

Calvin Teoh

Come hungry. Meat by the pound American BBQ at it's best. Vegetarians steer clear. Communal seating here so get one of your party to secure a spot while someone else goes up and orders.

DailyCandy

As legit a cocktail bar as hip mess hall. Grab a muddled bourbon cocktail while you wait to weigh-to-pay your portions of pork (belly, shoulder, cheeks), Wagyu beef , and broccoli salad .

Cooper Smith

Spread your group out wisely. One person waits in line for the meat and orders for the table (sharing is caring), one person to the bar for liters of beer . And 1 brave soul looks for a table.

pablco

short rubs are by far the best, pork belly is also good, take the german salad and some beans. Sausages are not so high quality compares with the rest, a meal around 30$ and beer 7$

RJ Dugan

Send someone to order drinks from the bar while you wait in line-it gets long. Everything is good (for meat lovers) except for the brisket . Brisket is tough to get right in large quantities-imo. GF!

Tasting Table

Get saucy at this festive , industrial-looking BBQ spot, housed in a former garage . Toast to your birth with beer by the gallon and whiskey by the Mason jar . Read more

Tizian Bürger

Amazing Food. The meat is awesome and the beer is great. You need nothing more but you will also get a cool atmosphere.

Ale Tower

One of the best BBQ spots in NYC, although I once got a lot of really fatty meat. Best to point to the server which cuts you're looking for in the meat you want.

Ed Frazier

Ribs , Brisket were on point! Bourbon Mule (Bar ) was fantastic! Get there around 7 for little to no wait! Don't forget desert and plan on eating too much food :) All major CC accepted!

JunkyardJoe

The pulled pork and pork belly are delicious! The brisket is not as tender and savory as it should be. The beans are ok. Go with a group and share a large tray of food.

Ed Frazier

Yeah it's THAT GOOD! Brisket and ribs are off tha chain! Go to the bar and get a burbon mule! Oh and that key lime pie will get you making funny faces!

Men's Health Mag

Don’t forget to send a buddy to the bar for growlers of beer and shots of bourbon . Then sit at one of the picnic tables take a deep breath, and dig in. Read more

J Scott

Just want to experience the delicious meats an laid bak environs (Williamsburg for driveway, but it's good) come before 6:30 on a Monday. Btw that beverage pictured is =pts ginger ale , root beer & Ri.

Nat Harward

BBQ Brisket : "Everything you could possibly require on a cold winter night: a blazing fireplace , vast quantities of smoky, succulent barbecue , and a wide selection of excellent whiskeys ." Read more

Joy Chen

Baked beans here are phenomenal: they've got bits of pork shoulder , bacon , and beef cooked with the beans in a tangy , splashy sauce that pairs well with your BBQ main.

Bastian Bergmann

Ribs and pulled pork are phenomenal. What trumps everything are the fried beans as a side - an absolute must!

Rachel Jeong

Pork ribs and pork belly are the best ones. I'm loving it!! ????

Danny Trejo

Excellent BBQ . Prepare to wait in line for a while of you get there during peak hours. Go to the bar , grab a drink and wait in line . It's worth it.

Abdullatif A

Great BBQ joint inside a garage . They have an amazing brisket . Try not to miss it while you're in Brooklyn.

David Zhang

If you can't go to Delaneys Briskettown, this place does great brisket too. Pork belly , bacon , and those beans are also great. Ribs and pulled pork are fine.

Raphael Langenscheidt

Still got it. Even after years, the brisket is great and the ribs fall off the bone. If you're in the mood for bbq , it's pretty much exactly the right place.

Rich Kearney

Brisket , pork , sausage , beans, sauerkraut , mac and cheese , GET IT ALL and make amazing little sandwiches with your potato rolls. Oh! and try all the different bbq sauces , they're all awesome.

Haley Hughes Bryan

Slap your mama it's so good! Get the pork ribs , pork shoulder (no sauce, perfect smoky flavor ), brisket , and burnt end baked beans with a beer to wash it down with.

Novi

Amazing bbq !!! Go for the brisket & some sausage . Felt like the meat just melts in your mouth ????

The Spark Group

Great atmosphere, great food. If you're in the mood for great BBQ , you cannot go wrong here. Bring a group of friends and order for sharing. It's all worth having. Our favorite: the pork belly .
