Profile

This venue is closed.

When the legendary Pearson's Texas Barbecue shut its doors in Long Island City, fans of its wood-smoked brisket and ribs—the best in town—were bereft until it reopened, curiously, in the back of Legends, a sports bar in Jackson Heights, Queens, where clued-in 'cue connoisseurs pay much more attention to the pulled pork and tender brisket sandwiches on Portuguese rolls than to the score of the game.
