We Won Brisket King NYC 2023

At the 12th Brisket King NYC, the biggest one yet, we took home both the top prize and the People's Choice trophy, ahead of several past winners.

The competition ran at Pig Beach NYC in Queens. NYC BBQ’s Sean Ludwig reported the result and why it didn’t surprise everyone: David ran the pits at Hometown BBQ, where he was mentored by past Brisket King winner Billy Durney, and Joel spent eight years as executive chef at The Goat’s Beard in Philadelphia. Blue Smoke, with pitmaster Bret Lunsford, was runner-up.

“Wildwoods BBQ was a frontrunner going into Brisket King based on pedigree.” Sean Ludwig, NYC BBQ
