A big shed of a room with a counter, trays, and a smoker doing the kind of brisket people drive to Texas for. You queue, you point, they weigh it, you find a table.

It runs out. That is not a marketing line, it is how barbecue works, and the people in front of you in the queue know it.

What to know

Go early. Cuts sell out through the afternoon, and the brisket goes first.

Going? Tell them MUSEENYC sent you. It's not a discount and there's nothing to redeem — we just want them to know where you heard it.
