Profile

Judging by the riotous red-faced crowd stuffing their maws in the back room of this Hell's Kitchen rib joint, you'd never know New York was such a (purportedly) barbecue-challenged town. Adam Perry Lang, veteran of the estimable rib joints Daniel and Le Cirque, has a fleet of chili-packing pushcarts and is also responsible for the X-rated steaks at Robert's, but this is his home base, the place where he smokes his first-rate Memphis-style ribs. Sides are almost uniformly goopy, if you like that sort of thing, and the pulled pork dry. But the special-order whole hogs and pork butts are full-fledged Falstaffian affairs. Call ahead and prepare to don plastic surgical gloves and bibs.

Pushcart Location

Next lunch break, check out Lang's authentic Texas chili from Daisy May's pushcart on 50th St. between Sixth and Seventh Aves.

Recommended Dishes

Mashed sweet potatoes with brown sugar, $4.50; baked beans with burnt ends, $4.50
