Hometown Bar-B-Que, Red Hook: Pit-Smoked Brisket and Two Bars

Hometown Bar-B-Que doesn’t post a happy hour. It’s a pit-smoked barbecue hall at 454 Van Brunt St, open since 2013, with two bars pouring craft beer, American whiskey, seasonal cocktails and wine.

The verdict: go for the brisket and treat the bar as the waiting room. Meat is cooked on oak and sold by the half pound at the counter until it runs out, and the line moves faster with a drink in hand. Live music plays on weekend nights.

What to Expect

  • Meat: brisket $20 a half pound, pulled pork $17, spare ribs $16, smoked turkey $20, beef rib $40 a pound.
  • Plates: Vietnamese hot wings, three for $15; brisket tacos $13; brisket queso with chips $10; mac and cheese from $7.
  • Hours: Tue–Thu and Sun noon–9pm, Fri–Sat noon–10pm, or until sold out. Closed Mondays.
  • Second location: Hometown Industry City in Sunset Park.
