Today we continued our taste test of New York BBQ and headed down to Gowanus to see what Fletcher's had to offer...
It only opened in back in November so it's new on the BBQ Block, but they do some amazing stuff and some really different selections of meat from anything else we've seen at the other BBQ places. As well as the usual brisket and ribs, they do BBQ chicken, lamb shank, hoisin duck and char sui!
We got a nice little tray with some ribs, brisket, chicken, mac n' cheese, some beans and the best, best, BEST char sui we'd ever tasted... it was amazing!
They also do some tasty drinks - I had a Bronx Pale Ale and Abi had a 'Tailgater' - a cider with a shot of rye whisky! Delicious!
The staff there were so friendly and the restaurant looked very smart...

It's in a bit of a weird area down in Gowanus, so the crowds weren't exactly like Briskettown or Fette Sau, but I'm sure it gets pretty busy in the evenings.
So, as it stands - Fette Sau does the best brisket, Briskettown does the best pork ribs and Fletcher's do the best char sui! There are plenty more places to try, so there's a LOT more meat eating to come.
The Brooklyn BBQ sampling continues...
