Finally got around to trying Bitterman’s after living down the block for 3 years and… OH MY GOD. not only was the food incredible, but also the service was especially amazing. Joe, the owner, helped us choose what to get. After seeing his passion for his food, we said “whatever you think is best, we’ll eat.” He loaded it up for us. We got the trifecta, which comes with ribs, pork and chicken. Garlic mash, chili, Mac and cheese and beans on the side. One order fed us both, with extra left over. We ate our dinner in SILENCE. That’s how you know the food was good. No need for words. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you Joe, Jos and Jose for your amazing help!
We went because my boyfriend wanted some bbq food for his Birthday. Everything was fantastic, the portions are generous and the food is DEFINITELY worth coming for. We had a great first time experience. All the meats were flavorful and tender, sides were delicious too. So glad we found this place. Thank you!
We drove to get a quick bite and we ended up with a whole experience. The owner Joe was an amazing host, showing us around his kitchen and explaining how his food is made (always fresh never frozen!) And the food! The pulled pork sandwich is delicious and huge! The ribs are super tender and flavorful. The sauce is also amazing good. With just the quality and flavor of the food I got hooked, but also the service is yet another level of awesomeness. Don’t miss it, we’ll definitely return to try the whole menu. Thanks Joe, Brian, and José!!
I ordered the BBQ Trifecta with ribs, smoked chicken, and Carolina pork, with garlic mashed potatoes and mac & cheese on the side and everything was outstanding. The ribs were tender and packed with flavor, the smoked chicken was juicy with just the right amount of smokiness and the Carolina pork was perfectly seasoned and pulled. You can tell the meats were smoked with care, not rushed. The sides were just as impressive. The garlic mashed potatoes were creamy and rich, and the mac & cheese was classic comfort food done right. Overall, the food was absolutely delicious and well worth it. If you’re looking for authentic BBQ, generous portions, and food that actually lives up to the hype, this spot is a must try. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more off the menu.
Bitterman’s BBQ is the real deal. No shortcuts. No games. First off the owner joe is the man! Wanna thank him personally for the amazing plate he made and me my family made us feel welcomed From the moment you see the tray, you already know—you’re about to eat something special. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, perfectly smoked with a deep bark and that rich, slow-cooked flavor you only get when someone actually knows BBQ. Not drowned in sauce—just seasoned and smoked the right way. The pulled meat is packed with flavor, juicy, and clearly cooked with patience. You can taste the hours put into it. The sides? Just as serious. Creamy, comforting, and made to compliment the meat, not distract from it. Every bite works together. What really sets Bitterman’s BBQ apart is consistency and care. This isn’t fast food BBQ—this is crafted BBQ. You can tell pride is involved. The portions are generous, the food is hot and fresh, and it feels like you’re being served something the pitmaster is proud of. If you’re a BBQ lover, this is a must. If you think you know good BBQ, this will remind you what great BBQ tastes like. Don’t forget the sides!! Make sure you get them all! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 — Highly recommended. Come hungry. Leave happy.
Food made me salivate, I ate way too much because it was so good. The ribs and pork were super tender and flavorful. The slaw was my favorite side, brings some freshness to the meats. Owner was very kind and the portion sizes are generous. The cornbread was huge, half the size of the platter itself . Highly recommended this place!!
Tonight was my first time coming here. Let me tell you I wasn't disappointed at all. We wanted to try all 3 different meat groups and basically try what they have. We went with 1- full rack of ribs 1- pulled pork container 1- chicken platter 1- side order of mash 1- side order of beans 1- side of Mac and cheese 1- side of corn bread (Came with extra sauce) First off the owner, is a personality all by himself. He is hilarious and will make you laugh. Second the food was delicious. The full rack he didn't want to cut up, since it would let the heat out of the ribs he wrapped it with care for me. It had its own smoke ring, was easily cut and the bark was delicious. Better then any of the ribs spots I've had on Long Island. The seasoning is done right. The pulled pork literally melted in your mouth the bark on that alone has made this place my favorite. Best pull pork ever. Chicken (thigh and leg) melted in your mouth as well, the skin was delicious. The meat had flavor. For proof my daughter who is 9, and and a tiny kid, devoured the entire thing and almost all the Mac and cheese by her self! Mac n cheese didn't taste like cardboard, was creamy and cheesy. Mash was good. The pork beans was amazing wife immediately said she needs to make something like this. All and all we will be returning customers, the price was phenomenal. My wife had to stop her self from eating more. I've never seen my daughter eat that much. We have left overs which is what we wanted. I wish we tried this place sooner. They even use vinyl gloves, I am allergic to latex, most food places only do latex. This was amazing and a point I have to make. My only gripe, no Doordash or delivery. But it's worth the drive.
If I could give six stars, I would, this place was nothing short of amazing. I’m a firm believer of good service heightening an experience and Joe delivered, he made us feel as if we were guest in his home. He gave us the best cuts to ensure that we enjoyed our meal. It’s always a great to see an owner, take pride in his craft. I highly recommend the pulled pork and their homemade barbecue sauce. Also the massive Ribs that were perfectly smoked and seasoned. Good food, good atmosphere is what this place is about. It’s worth a detour for a great experience. I will definitely be back.
