Bark Barbecue
Texas Style BBQ With Dominican Flavors
Bark Barbecue, the Brooklyn pit behind Central Texas technique filtered through Dominican heritage and New York City energy, started as a backyard passion project in Queens in 2020. Founder Ruben Santana spent weekends at pop-ups and markets before earning a permanent home at Time Out Market in DUMBO in 2022 — where his deeply smoked brisket, ribs, and oak-fired sausages quickly became some of the most talked-about barbecue in the city.
Bark isn't replicating Southern barbecue — it's redefining what the tradition means in Brooklyn, blending cultures and techniques on its own terms. Order Bark nationwide on Goldbelly.
