Ribs , FTW! Hella good collards , too. If you're staying, order the brisket , but 86 it if you're doing a takeout operation. Brisket doesn't travel well , no matter how you slice it.

Eva Drago

Decent BBQ with a fun vibe and lots of seating. Good for groups . Always get the pulled pork sandwich and brisket . Ask for extra sauce. Sides are the real stars: collards , cornbread , mac and cheese .

Frank O'Beans

We had a casual group dinner here and it was awesome. We organized a full weakened of events in NYC for our wedding and this was by far te chillest and easiest place to work with. Lots of fun!!!!

Mikey Neff

Absolutely obsessed with Mable’s! I’m here at least once a week. The place is empty for lunch during the week, great spot for kids too. The most delicious & authentic BBQ I’ve had in a while.

The Corcoran Group

Start your happy hour with a can of beer and a shot for $4! Then move on to the main course of a platter of beef brisket with potato salad and borracho beans.

Kristi Evans

I am blown away by the consistent amazingness of this restaurant . Pulled pork , ribs , brisket , mac n cheese , candied yams are all tied for first. And don't forget the peanut butter pie !

Sara Moreno

The veggie sloppy Joes are seriously awesome! Mac and cheese was also delicious! My husband raved about the brisket too--said it's some of the best he's found since leaving the south. Check it out!

PureWow

We can't get enough of the pulled pork and cozy atmosphere at this Williamsburg eatery , and the sides are standouts, too (hello, house-pickled beets ). Read more

Larissa Alvarez

I love a good solid bbq joint . Fast friendly service . brisket was great as was the pulled pork . My favorite side was mac and cheese . Sweet tea also on point.

Cole Kennedy

Barbecue for brunch ? You bet. The Huevos Rancheros with pulled pork is killer, but don't sleep on the decadent mac & cheese either.

ileana Rodriguez

Best bbq ! Must Get: brisket , ribs , bbq beans , yams , and frito pie . Can do without: mac and cheese , pulled pork , sausage , and long waits

Sean Ludwig

The ribs are tender but not as flavorful as one would hope. Get the brisket and BBQ baked beans !

Leah FundraisingHelp

OMG, loved the brisket sandwich and Lottie and Jason shared a huge combo platter that was really delicious. It's fun sitting next to other people at the long tables

New York Post

Relies exclusively on Oklahoma-style barbecue recipes from the co-owner's grandmother Mable. Try the brisket ($14.95 for a platter with sides) — it’s served naked with a zingy sauce on the side. Read more

Jonathan Saez

The brisket sandwich was amazing, it was tender, sweet and juicy. And the ribs fell right off the bone. Highly recommend this place

Hien Ly

Ribs were fantastic as well as the cornbread .

Rory Parness

The ribs were other-worldly. Perfectly caramelized bark and fall off the bone tender inside. Get the full rack with a side of mac and cheese

Village Voice

Village Voice is proud to welcome Mable's Smokehouse to the 2014 Choice Eats food fest! http://bit.ly/1cRzdNV. Pour their secret house-made sauce on everything.

G Daniell

All this for $25,brisket sandwich,creamy Mac n cheese , and corn bread with a beer ????????

Tracy Qui

A bit off the beaten path but worth it. Great pulled pork ,Mac n cheese and by far the best collards ever tasted. Pass on the corn bread .

Melissa Moon

Def a good meal for $11! Brisket was amazing!!!!! Beans, mac and cheese , coleslaw were amazing!!! I just wish the cornbread was a bit sweeter #noms

Basak

Not as good as Fette Sau but they have good pulled pork and brisket ! Their brunch menu is small but very delicious!

Bea Ellis

Ribs , pulled pork , brisket with beans, Mac and cheese and cornbread sides

Christopher Pepe

The St. Louis ribs are the way to go here: tender, fall-off-the-bone sweet meatness. Skip the mac and cheese and go for the baked beans .

Dan Kao

Amazing bbq ! The three meat three side platter is definitely worth it if you're looking to split with friends or eat it on your own!

L B

The bbq wings and the brisket were awesome. And the cornbread was so good I coulda had a plate of that and nothing else :-)

Hannah Han

Pulled pork was a little dry/bland but the sauce on the table saved it! Side of the caramelized sweet potato is a MUST, I wanted to lick the plate!

Chris Ssentongo

Cheap as hell and ribs to die for. Plus great location for a bar crawl before or after.

Time Out New York

Try the lush beef brisket , which spends up to 14 hours in the smoker before it hits the table; leaner cuts are sliced for platters ($15), while the fattier meat gets chopped up for sandwiches ($10). Read more

Alicia Alikhani

The best BBQ in NYC period end of story. Pulled pork , collards with hot sauce and Mac and cheese . Wash it down with a pickle back !

Nick Foden

Ribs and Brisket are excellent. Toast could be buttered and toasted as in Texas Toast , but this place is the best BBQ in Brooklyn. Contest is closed.

Vicky O

Delicious! Get the beef brisket cooked to perfection. We had the collard greens and corn bread on the side so yum!

Stevan Milesevic

The ribs are to die for, pulled pork is amazing and even the side dishes are awesome -- also, good selection of beers !

Serious Eats

Not our favorite barbecue in the neighborhood , but mostly solid; sandwiches like the chopped brisket are tasty highlights.

Nicholas Doyle

The Juicy Brisket , Salsa-y Borracho Beans, Crisp Slaw , and Bacon infused greens are what set this BBQ joint apart from its (not insignificant) competition.

Debbie Galo

Went here as part of a food tour . The ribs were amazing, specially when paired with the spiced vinegar! Trés bon!

Ron Scott

Had the 3 meat and 3 sides platter and couldn't finish it. Was well worth it try..

Gilt City

Assemble a group of friends and squeeze into one of the communal dining tables in the cavernous joint, or belly up to the prodigious bar , well-stocked with bourbon and (natch) Lone Star beer .

Mike McBryan

Prime location next to Whiskey Brooklyn. Would give it a B+ for BBQ , but still behind Fette Sau and Mighty Quinns. Bigger and better beers though.

Fraser Elliot

Super friendly staff . Amazing food. My first experience of this kind of food. Totally loved it.

Kristine C

St. Louis ribs are amazing, also candied yams rock and super nice bartender serves spiked cherry limeade that tastes like sonic's

Kelsey

I went here on a food tour and got to try the rib , brisket , and pulled pork . All were delicious, but unfortunately they gave both my friend and I food poisoning.

Bin Yang

Great brisket , okay ribs and sausages . Good vibes and tons of options for sides!

Johnny Won

Brisket and ribs are stellar. Try to get a combo and share with the group rather than get individuals.

Thrillist

Stop over at this industrial barn-steezed "roadhouse" for a plate of "Grandma Mable's" secret recipe Pulled Pork and wash it down with the hard-to-find OG Beer , Coors Original Banquet. Read more

Élise Wyatt

Texas style BBQ ! Queso made velteeta and rotel - it's a winner. Also lots of shiner on tap . ????

Baldy Rakhra

It's an amazing place for great homestyle BBQ and the bar is great for drinks! Check out their story: www.fair.st/mabfilm Read more

Kai Brinker

Order from here when you're at Brooklyn Brewery 's happy hour (it's right next door). A platter with three meats feeds two people well . Everything is excellent except the cornbread .

Nicole Sobers

The ribs are the best I've had in BK by far. They usually sell out.

Kimmie Ohh

Get the brisket , borracho beans, creamy mac&cheese & cornbread !
