Sick of Turkey Yet?
Well, maybe not quite yet. But, for you carnivores out there who will be looking for something beyond the usual gobble-gobble and snooze once the leftovers are done, Gothamist has some good news - a new BBQ spot is going to be opening its doors in the next week or so.
Where? Brooklyn Heights - 60 Henry Street, between Orange and Cranberry Streets, to be exact.
The name? Pig 'n Out. (Love it!)
Southern street cred? One of the guys helping to set up the joint said he was from Southern Brooklyn. Not quite the cred we were looking for, but you never know.
Stay tuned...Gothamist will be back with a full report, once Pig 'n Out opens its doors.

The Dinosaur will eat Pig 'N Out for lunch. Oh snap! From Syracuse, Rochester, Harlem with respect.
I stopped by on Saturday to see the place. There were 2 or 3 guys working on the last touches. It smelled of paint and the decor seems to be cows and cowboys motif with southwest desert colors. They said that they would be open in about 2 weeks or at least before Christmas. They have a smoker inside towards the back and will be smoking meat in it.
It's a very small space. There won't be much room for tables. I believe that it is the same location that had one of the better taco joints in the neighborhood.
Next door is Henry's End, a long time resident of the location. It's been around long before any of the places on Smith St.
Most importantly, at number 62 is Henry St. Ale House. Now if we could combine real barbecue with real ale that would be ideal.
