Pig Beach BBQ Queens

Barbecue restaurant · Astoria

"Pig Beach founders are Balthazar alum Shane McBride and Del Posto vet Matt Abdoo, and while this Queens branch lacks the estuarial views of the Gowanus original, the barbecue has gotten a shade better. Sliced thick and sold in portions as small as a quarter pound, the brisket is now one of the best on this map. Pulled lamb shoulder with yogurt sauce is a tasty outlier, and the provolone-laced sausage is the only thing that was just so-so on a recent revisit. It’s a great place for families with kids." - Robert Sietsema
