Daisy May’s BBQ is a barbecue joint in Hell’s Kitchen on 46th and 11th Ave. They also have a BBQ food cart on 50th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues.
As soon as you walk in, you’ll see signs telling you:
1. where to order (to the left)
2. where to pick up your order
3. where to sit
The menu is standard, like any other barbecue restaurant: pulled pork, ribs, brisket, and chicken.
The list of fixins’
- Black beans with burnt ends
- Rustic Creamy Corn with NY State Cheddar
- Creamed Spinach
- Mashed Potatoes with Red Eye Gravy
- Cajun Dirty Rice with Beans
- Sweet Potatoes with Brown Sugar
- Bourbon Peaches
- Collard Greens
- Macaroni and Cheese
- Creamy Coleslaw
- Golden Spicy Corn Bread
I tried the Brisket Plate Special, $14 which comes with a nice portion of brisket and 2 fixins’. The brisket was lean and covered with barbecue sauce. Actually one of the best brisket I’ve had. The collard greens; not spicy like other spots, but was delicious. The creamy corn was almost like a low carb mac and cheese, with corn bits replacing the macaroni. A little too heavy for me, but if you like cheesy foods, go for it. The baked beans are also good, and very sweet. As soon as I took a bite into it, I immediately tasted the brown sugar.

Overall, the food was pretty good. When you come here, make sure you’ve got an appetite – the portions are big.
