I went for the first time. Drove for 2 hours. Julio treated us like he knew us , and broke everything down.We spoke in Spanglish😂. Super cool.The food was phenomenal. I went to Austin, and this place is up with them. Wish you much success!
My buddy willson was lead camera for this one! I used a lot of his shots he's got a real talent for it. He also helped me on the Ray's video that came out last and the Bar A that's coming soon!
Within the first 20 seconds, I could feel the passion and love these guys have for their craft. You can't ask for more. Cooking is a form of expressing love, prove me wrong?
As somebody who’s just starting out smoking meat on an offset, I can tell you this man works very hard, and it has to be a labor of love or else any human would throw the towel in. 🙏🏻 hats off to him
I'm planning a culinary trip from Sweden to the U.S and the main draw is the BBQ. I've eaten BBQ all around Europe and Asia but there is simply no competition when it comes to American BBQ. Been saving up for the past years through covid so I have no regrets in what and where I want to eat. Thank you for your channel and all others in the community showing great places for me to visit!
I don’t know how many states you will go to, but go to Texas last, they’ll water down the rest of the food there and you don’t want to ruin your trip doing that 😂!!
This type of food is what makes America amazing! Being able to borrow from everyone and make something amazing. As a Texan all my life i totally support this food
kasso_tuc Great video Ant! So glad to see it’s back up! I live in Manhattan and went down to time out market and was sad to see that bark was closed. Glad they are back open and will definitely be making my way back soon. My favorite part of the video was seeing Ruben’s first few cooks and his progression. #ANTSBBQ
carlostorresvo My favorite part was the whole thing😅. Love to see a fellow Dominican thrive. Ruben seems like a very cool and humble guy with a great story. Fantastic documentary. #antsbbq
Love stories like this man’s story. If you love what you do, the money will come. I love what I do , made no money for years eventually the money came .
Hurlassio Love the video - wish I lived closer so I could get over there! While the gratuitous shot of the food tray was amazing, my favorite part was that Bark’s smoker. Dang that thing is a beauty! #ANTSBBQ
I finally had a chance to check out Bark. Thank you for the recommendation. It's nice to say that's there's finally delicious BBQ in New York City. I was lucky they had Beef Ribs today. You can't find them anywhere here.
JDDeMotte As a KC native, I've been around bbq all my life. I'm not so full of myself to consider myself an expert on BBQ, but I know enough to recognize good barbecue. And Barks looks impressive. I love seeing someone fuse other cultures' food with an established classic to make something new and exciting. Totally want to try the platanos/fried cheese one. #ANTSBBQ
This is so awesome! I love the customer focus. The food looks incredible. The Texas style BBQ will bring them to the yard, but the Latin dishes will keep them coming back time and again.🎉🎉
albertsnosh My favorite part was seeing how Bark puts their cultural flair to Texas bbq. Something I look to do with my backyard bbq as well. Seeing the "band of misfits" that make up the team and how each different background or personality contributes to the success of the restaurant is awesome! #antsbbq
You inspire me my brother! I am a phenomenal cook and hope to one day open a restaurant. Keep up the good work. I'm definitely getting up that way to try some of this delicious food. Love your confidence! Salute 😎
@luminousnyc I love seeing Ruben's new staff. Anybody in the industry knows how important it is to have a good consistent staff doing perfect things every day. And its awesome to see he was able to do it as he said, he never worked in food service, but he's always been able to provide top notch food and service since the pop-ups he ran at the local breweries here in Queens. Love to see Bark BBQ progress so much since then. Hope to see it at TimeOut Market this Friday since I'll be in the area.
Love the video! You boys need to lift those prep tables a Ft or 2! It’s hard on the back and I’m just an amateur bbq neighborhood pit master, so I can’t imagine doing that much like that at a time!
@TDKAP I loved how they are putting their own flair on their food while cooking bbq. I never knew this existed in New York and will definitely have to check it out.
Good morning all congratulations first of all for your barbecue business. I’m a new to the social media family through U-Tube and just watched your story and I’ve never been to NY but when I visit I’ll make sure to find you and chow down. I’m born and raised in DC but live in NC and by this state supposed to be the capital of barbecue where I live the joints I’ve been to sucks in my opinion. So again Kudos to you and I’ll keep following you and by the way the Brisket I can taste through the screen. Gary G
Sincitybbq Very influential, the best thing for me to see was the mash up of cultures. Keep up the great work, and bring some of the newer style bbq guys to light. #ANTSBBQ
Yeeeaah that sandwich was crazy! Ruben gave me the ok to do a copy cat recipe of the sandwiches on my channel. Going to film it when I get back from Houston/Dallas in a few weeks!
Man, this was the best time I've had during this "BBQ Story" series. Ruben and his team treated me like family. So glad I am able to document these adventures so you guys can experience it with me. Next episode will be at Ray's in Huntington Park, CA! Video will be live next month and I can't wait for you all to see it! Take care, y'all ✌️
@peterandnai I love all of the brisket shots of course, but I also liked seeing the old footage of some of Ruben's very first cooks. Awesome to see how much has changed/improved in such a relatively short time. #ANTSBBQ
aeromaniac My favorite part is that there’s maduros on the menu. I moved to NYC thinking I’d go crazy over pizza and bagels, but I ended up falling in love with Dominican food way more ❤. #ANTSBBQ
Bro did you take this down and put it back up or do I need to put my joint down? Because I swear this was up a while ago 🤔 but happy it's up again dope vlog
L1ve4themoment You had me (even more) with Sazon and Adobo. Boricua here so to see a mixture of Hispanic mixed in with traditional style “Texas” BBQ was cool to see. #antsbbq
Wow! I never knew this place exists in Brooklyn. I’m happy to see Texas style bbq making its way in my hometown. Will need to visit for sure. Thanks for creating this video. Netflix needs to call you about doing these specials. Keep them coming Ant! Favorite part of the video was Ruben explaining how his first brisket cook was horrendous and it led him to take a step back to build his fire management skills and then do a backyard pop up cookout. It has encouraged me to do the same thing so I can learn my pit and fire management. JayTheGourmet #ANTSBBQ
zombiedanting My favorite part was highlighting the sandwiches and the shot of the beef ribs at the end. Got to make my way there one weekend! #ANTSBBQ
el_bofo_ccm Great video, love how you took Texas style bbq to NY. Favorite part of the video was seeing the first cooks on the small smoker, kinda like myself at the moment learning and perfecting the brisket #ANTSBBQ
birdbrain73 My favorite part is seeing the enthusiasm his guys had, especially the one that needs the music playing to work. That guy I could hang with. Glad to see a young crew getting it done. Best of luck to them. I’d love to spend a week working those pits. #antsbbq
@throopertrooper My favorite part was seeing the Caribbean flavors and culture added to the Texas bbq style. This is a really interesting combination. #ANTSBBQ
Make sure you LIKE and SHARE the video so it can spread to more people :)
I went for the first time. Drove for 2 hours. Julio treated us like he knew us , and broke everything down.We spoke in Spanglish😂. Super cool.The food was phenomenal. I went to Austin, and this place is up with them. Wish you much success!
yeah julio is such a cool guy. i wish i knew more spanish so i could talk to him more. next time for sure!
What should I order to Eat when I go there ?????
Danke!
you know the brothers got passion when he names his smokers😂 love it❤
Ant is such a "slept-on" talent with the camera. His cinematography is top notch. Can't wait for his channel to explode and be recognized.
My buddy willson was lead camera for this one! I used a lot of his shots he's got a real talent for it. He also helped me on the Ray's video that came out last and the Bar A that's coming soon!
I love how he shows love to others. He didn't have to show that other BBQ place but he did and I'm sure it put eyes on their business that's love 💯🔥
yeah its all love out there! Ruben was pretty adamant about highlighting Jase, i thought it was really cool too!
Within the first 20 seconds, I could feel the passion and love these guys have for their craft. You can't ask for more. Cooking is a form of expressing love, prove me wrong?
Great story about an ambitious young man. I applaud him for his hard work and determination to succeeding in his business.
As somebody who’s just starting out smoking meat on an offset, I can tell you this man works very hard, and it has to be a labor of love or else any human would throw the towel in. 🙏🏻 hats off to him
I love these documentary style videos as it really shows the work that goes into barbecue prep. Never stop doing this, Ant.
I'm planning a culinary trip from Sweden to the U.S and the main draw is the BBQ. I've eaten BBQ all around Europe and Asia but there is simply no competition when it comes to American BBQ. Been saving up for the past years through covid so I have no regrets in what and where I want to eat. Thank you for your channel and all others in the community showing great places for me to visit!
COME!!! Can’t wait for you to eat your way through the country.
Go to Texas don’t go there. Not saying it is bad but you can find 100 places as good in Texas pretty easy.
I don’t know how many states you will go to, but go to Texas last, they’ll water down the rest of the food there and you don’t want to ruin your trip doing that 😂!!
Kansas City BBQ baby beats all the rest!
@jumper55ful kc bbq is bad meat drowned in sweet ketchup
This type of food is what makes America amazing! Being able to borrow from everyone and make something amazing. As a Texan all my life i totally support this food
Your production quality is top tier! Hope you achieve everything your seeking to accomplish!
thank you! I really appreciate that 🙏
Wonderful Great Video Sir ❤❤😍😍
Awesome video--I love your style of interviewing and editing, I always pick up nuances in cooking technique by the people you feature.
Appreciate that, man! Glad it's entertaining and educational!
you hit your stride with these videos, so good!
thanks!😁

sorry you went when it was closed! that's why i took the video down to try and prevent that from happening. awesome! let the crew know i sent you :)
Nice work Ant. Their food looks amazing. That’s some proper Texas brisket in NY.
Man I gotta try this place out. I like the vibe. Wish you guys continued success 👊🏽

Ruben is a well built man okay 👍🏼 😊 the chicken 🐓 & corn 🌽 bread look so good yum 😋

Do it!!!
Love what you have accomplished!
Beautiful story & A1 production 🔥
appreciate that bro! y'all next 👀
Watching this in the middle of fasting 😭but seems amazing, definitely got to cross the pond to get me some bark BBQ
sorry! Stay strong!!
Love the video! You boys need to lift those prep tables a Ft or 2! It’s hard on the back and I’m just an amateur bbq neighborhood pit master, so I can’t imagine doing that much like that at a time!
Great video and that food looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome an update years later. Cool to watch
@TDKAP
I loved how they are putting their own flair on their food while cooking bbq. I never knew this existed in New York and will definitely have to check it out.
that's awesome! let them know i sent you! also dont forget @antsbbq in your comment so it gets entered in!
The movement is honorable.🏆

Great video! Good Luck Bark! It must be tough to run the prep area in the middle of a tough winter?? DD
thank you haha yeah ruben told me this horrible story of something that happened the prior winter. it gets brutal

Отличное видео, прекрасная работа, спасибо!
😁🙏🙏
Can't wait to try this place out!
Def if you're ever in the area!
Jam Loc
What I like about the Bark BBQ video is the passion I see with preparing the food. Also the pork belly.
#ANTSBBQ
It's hard to pick between the two on which is better hahaha I'm with you
Wish I knew you were n Bklyn! Love Bark and love the video. Im a little confused though, wasnt this released a week or 2 ago also?
Yeah I took it down a couple weeks ago because bark was closed. They opened back up this week so I reuploaded it!
Sincitybbq
Very influential, the best thing for me to see was the mash up of cultures. Keep up the great work, and bring some of the newer style bbq guys to light.
#ANTSBBQ
Got houston next week, the Carolinas in a by the end of the year and a vietnamese/Texas fusion late in the year 👀
When I’m next there - I’m going. Looks so good!
when you hear the proprietor say - "I have the greatest crew in the world" you know great things are ahead!
So why did it get taken down? Glad it’s back up.
Bark was temporarily closed. Didn't want to send people over there through the video for them to find out the hard way. But they are opened up again!
Health issues perhaps
@@vinny4149no. Supply issues. I work there
Ummm, chicken, Mac & Cheese, everything looks delicious. I need to catch a flight from Texas to New York
How is this channel not over a 100k subs yet!
Kaitlin.Blom
My favorite part was the inspiration and the drive this owner has. Makes me want to fire to learn more about bbq.
thats why i make these videos! to inspire people with these incredible stories😁
a solid crew is what you need, everything else is just basics
HumptyBump
The stroytelling in these videos is getting so much better. Love that the focus is on the people, not the food
#ANTSBBQ
Thank you! Makes my day to see people notice that!
Irs amazing to see how your business has grown.
emdeucee
Love the interview/documentary style cinematography! Part of the video where he shows the sandwich for me drooling!
#ANTSBBQ
Yeeeaah that sandwich was crazy! Ruben gave me the ok to do a copy cat recipe of the sandwiches on my channel. Going to film it when I get back from Houston/Dallas in a few weeks!
From a South Carolina pitmaster and business owner, that looks delicious!!
Dominicano represent, weeepaaaaa! 🇩🇴
Dptdoza, I love the Dominican flare added to Texas style bbq🇩🇴 #antsbbq

Can't fo wrong with a brisket shot hahaha

My favorite part is that there’s maduros on the menu. I moved to NYC thinking I’d go crazy over pizza and bagels, but I ended up falling in love with Dominican food way more ❤. #ANTSBBQ
my wife and I ate maduros almost every day we were there lol feel you!
It’s really, really great Que. Is it the best ? No. Is it a spot I would go for great Que? Yes. Worth it? Yes.
Looks so yummy! And no, I'm not referring to the barbecue. 😂
Another great video
thank you!
Bro did you take this down and put it back up or do I need to put my joint down? Because I swear this was up a while ago 🤔 but happy it's up again dope vlog
yeah i took it down a couple weeks ago, but glad its back now for hopefully more people to see! Thank you!
Looks sweet!!
Thanks!

Happy it’s back up
me too!
