John Brown Smokehouse was founded with the goal of bringing the freshest and most delicious Kansas City style BBQ to the people of Long Island City and beyond. With this in mind, the pitmasters at John Brown Smokehouse toil day and night to execute only the highest quality food in a setting that is both down-home and downtown. We cook only a limited amount per day to ensure all of our guests get only the freshest possible product. Feel free to give us a call or check our Facebook feed for updates on what’s left. Come on in and taste the Legend.

Thrillist called it among the best BBQ in the country, and they're not wrong.
