Texas Style BBQ With Dominican Flavors
Texas Style BBQ With Dominican Flavors
Bark Barbecue began in 2020 as a backyard passion project, when founder Ruben Santana started smoking meats in Queens using Central Texas barbecue techniques and a whole lot of instinct. What started as weekend pop-ups and market appearances quickly became one of New York City’s most buzzed-about barbecue stories, earning a devoted following for its deeply smoked brisket, ribs, and sausages. By 2022, Bark put down roots in Brooklyn at Time Out Market under the Brooklyn Bridge in DUMBO, marking its evolution from a word-of-mouth favorite into a must-visit destination.
What sets Bark Barbecue apart is its unmistakable point of view: classic low-and-slow Texas barbecue infused with Dominican heritage and NYC energy. Santana pairs oak-smoked meats with sides and flavors inspired by his background, creating a barbecue style that feels both deeply traditional and entirely new. Bark isn’t trying to copy the South — it’s redefining what barbecue can be in Brooklyn, blending cultures, techniques, and community.
