"Catch Empire BBQ if you can—their big black truck sometimes operates around Midtown in the vicinity of West 56th Street, but they can be found parked at events in Far Rockaway and Staten Island. Call 732-955-7273 for their current and upcoming locations. They serve chicken sandwiches, pulled pork, and smoked brisket. “Get the ‘Garson,’” recommends Harney. “It’s a crispy chicken sandwich with fries, chorizo, and queso.”" - carla thomas
