I <3 BBQ


First there was Hill Country on 26th Street (which I have been to with my work crew) and now there is Wildwood Barbeque on Park Ave @ 18th. Both are from the BBQ brain of "Big Lou" Elrose.

Details from UrbanDaddy:

You might be familiar with Texas-style barbecue from Hill Country, Big Lou's previous gig, but Wildwood casts a wider net. To prepare the menu, Lou went on a pilgrimage to the best barbecue joints in the country, stockpiling 500 jars of sauce and visiting pits from Raleigh to St. Louis. The result is a menu chock full of the best regional American barbecue, with pulled pork courtesy of North Carolina, baby back ribs from Memphis, pork ribs from Kansas City and lamb spare ribs from...his imagination.

Naturally, you'll want something to wash all that down, so they've stockpiled 30 different bourbons for your sipping pleasure, along with suitably refined cocktails like a spot-on Mint Julep (fortified with "Kentucky Colonel" mint).

Wildwood Barbecue, 225 Park Ave S. (at 18th), 212-533-2500
