  1. Fette Sau
    8.7

    Fette Sau

    354 Metropolitan Ave., Brooklyn, NY

    Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new favorite BBQ spot. Situated inside what used to be an old auto body shop, this gutted garage is raging every night of the week.

  2. Char No. 4
    8.4

    Char No. 4

    196 Smith Street, Brooklyn, NY

    Char No. 4 is essentially our New York City dream house – a warm, inviting space with a wall of bourbon and a smoker. This is Southern influenced food in New York City, and it’s damn good.

  3. Blue Smoke
    8.3

    Blue Smoke

    116 E. 27th St, Murray Hill, NY

    A long time Infatuation favorite. This is some of the best BBQ you can find in New York City.

  4. Georgia's East Side BBQ
    8.3

    Georgia’s Eastside BBQ

    192 Orchard St., Lower East Side, NY

    A couple of years ago, when BBQ was all the rage in NYC, a tiny goldmine unceremoniously opened its doors on the Lower East Side. If you haven’t heard about Georgia’s already, it’s time to take notice.

  5. Mable's Smokehouse
    7.9

    Mable’s Smokehouse

    44 Berry St., Williamsburg, NY

    It didn’t take much time for us to realize that we were going to like Mable’s Smokehouse. Why? For starters, Frito pie. High fives if you know what that is. Chances are you spent some time as a kid hanging at a suburban Texas pool snack bar. I certainly ate my fair share of the [...]

  6. Dinosaur_BBQ
    7.9

    Dinosaur Bar-B-Que

    700 W. 125th Street, Harlem, NY

    If you’ve spent any real time in Central New York, you probably have fond memories of Dinosaur BBQ. If not, just ask one of the 200 people you know who went to Syracuse – they’ll tell you all about it. Back in my Ithaca College days, we’d drive up to ‘Cuse for three reasons: the [...]

  7. Hill Country
    7.7

    Hill Country

    30 W 26th St, Flatiron, NY

    Love getting dirty on some BBQ? You’ll love Hill Country. This is downtown Manhattan’s biggest and baddest Texas style meat market.

  8. Rub BBQ
    7.1

    Rub BBQ

    208 W. 23rd St., Chelsea, NY

    A long time ago, we met a man named Calhoun the Superhero. He ran deliveries for Rub BBQ, and he was awesome. Feel free to read all about him in our Highline Challenge feature from 2009. We assume that he’s moved on by now to a new job or been elected to public office, but [...]

  9. Fatty Cue
    3.8

    Fatty ‘Cue

    91 S. 6th St., Brooklyn, NY

    Fatty ‘Cue is apparently out to bring “a little Southeast Asian fermented funkiness” to Williamsburg. Something is funky alright…my stomach and their math. Everything in this place is overpriced and underwhelming.

  10. Neelys Barecue Parlor
    3.8

    Neely’s Barbecue Parlor

    1125 1st Ave., Upper East Side, NY

    What I am about to say probably won’t surprise you. We are not fans of Neely’s Barbecue Parlor. This place might as well be a Bubba Gump’s Shrimp Company, and it might as well be on 44th and Broadway. But to be honest, we were a little bit surprised that we didn’t like it more. [...]
