Now in its 14th year, Brisket King NYC returns on Wednesday, April 29 at Astoria's Pig Beach BBQ, bringing together more than 15 chefs and restaurants serving up everything from classic Texas-style low-and-slow brisket to favorites found in Jewish delis, Thai kitchens, Caribbean jerk stands and Mexican barbacoa traditions.
