We're still working all the meat out of our system from Saturday's Gothamist-Serious Eats/AHT QBQ BBQ II, but we hope that those of you who made it had a good time. Thankfully, the forecasted rain held off as we served about 150 pounds of beef (600 burgers) during the event. A special thanks to Harry Hawk, the staff at Water Taxi Beach and some assistants from Gothamist, Serious Eats and A Hamburger Today, Six Apart, and for everyone who came out for the event. Apologies for the early line and beer flow issues.
For additional coverage, check out Adam's wrap-up at AHT, Jason Perlow's excellent in-depth coverage at Off the Broiler (he's got audio, video, and photos) and that was probably awkward's post about the event.
A few more photos after the jump.
