Brooklyn Beefsteak

The revival of the beefsteak—a raucous, meat-and-beer–fueled feast popular in 19th-century New York—continues at this carnivorous affair. Use your hands to grab an endless supply of Pat LaFrieda hanger steak, which you can douse with sauces like chimichurri, spicy barbecue and horseradish cream. Light and dark McSorley's Ale will flow freely, and there'll be lively tunes throughout by hillbilly boogie band Susquehanna Industrial Tool & Die Co. Afterward, take home a cow-emblazoned souvenir apron.
