Sometimes when it rains, you just have to follow your nose to Sanders Studio for Brisket King NYC and prepare yourself mentally for a night of more tasting plates than you can count. As I closed up my umbrella and put together my camera, my senses were awakened by the delightful aroma circulating the venue. Chefs were already looking busy and the lines for both libations and food were starting to get muddled.
I quickly began to start the night with the likes of Dinosaur BBQ and Blue Smoke. Amongst some of the other features of the evening, these two competitors stood out for me the most. Blue Smoke had a hearty, deep flavored cut that wasn’t shy by far and it won them first place in the smoked category. No surprise there with the robust flavors they were dishing out.
Then Dinosaur BBQ’s was topping their dishes with a sauce that alone was enough to go back for seconds. It was the perfect BBQ sauce and it made their slider softer and richer all in one bite. Brisket King NYC is heaven for meat lovers and the competitiveness amongst the chefs, makes the night even more interesting.
Libations were everywhere but Bombay Gin really stole the show. They handed me one of the best cocktails I had all night but Brisket King NYC had a wide range of brews and liquor vendor to choose from. Best idea all night because you’re going to need to wash down all the meats you indulge in.
In the end, The Wandering Que took home the title and when I visited their table, they were working hard to be sure of it. The event also last long enough to pick a personal favorite of your own and make new friends while you’re there. With butcher demos going on, who could avoid conversation?
All in all, putting Brisket King NYC on your list of food events to attend next year, will be a great idea.
