Where To Eat With A Really Big Group - New York - The Infatuation

"If you ever need to plan a casual group meal with a bunch of people who appreciate smoked meat, go to Hometown Bar-B-Que in Red Hook. The space is about the size of a deluxe barn, with high ceilings, plenty of tables, and some quality taxidermy. It’s counter-service, and there will probably be a line when you go, but just take that as a sign that you’re dining at a quality place. Once you get to the front of that line, order brisket, several types of ribs, some tacos and wings, and (this last is important) one lamb belly banh mi for every two people in your group." - bryan kim
