The 12th annual Big Apple Barbecue Block Party (BABBP) rolls into town this coming weekend, bringing pitmasters and barbecue styles from across the nation to Manhattan. Started way back in 2002 by Danny Meyer and erstwhile Blue Smoke pitmaster Kenny Callaghan, the event has had a seminal impact on barbecue in the city, giving many New Yorkers their first taste of authentic barbecue. This year the lineup includes pitmasters from eight states as well as an unprecedented number of local participants.

The 9th Annual Big Apple Barbecue Block Party took place in Madison Square Park June 11-12, 2011. The weekend-long event occurs every June and brings together the country’s top pitmasters who cook up their award-winning food for over a 100,000 barbecue enthusiasts.
Set against the beautiful backdrop of Madison Square Park, the Big Apple Barbecue Block Party attracts people from near and far to sustain and celebrate America’s authentic culinary and musical traditions.
The interior of Restaurant Black Smoke is robust and industrial, fitting the Van Nelle factory location. There's plenty of seating inside, but there's also a large, inviting terrace. Guests can also choose the "Hot Seats" right by the open kitchen, where they can watch the pitmasters at work. The restaurant offers a complete experience, from the interior design and the food to the very pleasant atmosphere.

Black Smoke in Rotterdam focuses on open-fire barbecue. It occupies a unique location in the monumental Van Nelle Factory, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The restaurant's industrial decor is fitting for the location. Guests can sit at the "Hot Seats" right next to the open kitchen, where they can watch the pitmasters at work.
The restaurant specializes in "Hell's Kitchen"—instead of traditional cooking methods, everything is prepared over an open flame. The kitchen is equipped with American smokers, South American asado grills, Indian tandoori ovens, and Japanese hibachi grills. There are no gas knobs, only wood and coal to control the temperature. The bar is also known for its creative cocktails.

Add the sweet, smoky contents of this jar to a couple of cans of beans and your family will think you slow simmered your gourmet barbecue beans all day.
