NATIONAL BACON LOVERS DAY JUST GOT A WHOLE LOT SWEETER.

Around here, we don’t just serve bacon, we candy it.

Our Candied Bacon brings together thick-cut, smoky bacon with sweet finishes for the perfect combination of salty, smoky + sweet in every bite.
Crispy around the edges and sticky in all the right places.

If there’s ever been a day to add an extra order of bacon to the table, this is it, darlin’.

Happy National Bacon Lovers Day from the Original New York BBQ. 🤠🥓
📍 Times Square + Las Vegas

🤷‍♂️ “We should get BBQ” The easiest decision you’ll make all week.

When that low-and-slow craving hits, there’s no point in fighting it…just shrug, follow the smoke, and pull up a chair at Virgil’s. From our ten-hour smoked brisket and hand-pulled pork to ribs that slide right off the bone, we’re serving up authentic Southern comfort. Grab a cold drink and let us handle the rest.

This is how we do pulled pork at Virgil’s 🔥

Duroc pork butts seasoned & slow until they’re tender enough to pull by hand.

Once they’re off the pit, Pitmaster Mike gets to work, hand-pulling every juicy bite & finishing it with our Carolina-style vinegar mop for that perfect tangy finish.

New setup, same sweet and smoky goodness. We gave our fan-favorite candied bacon a little glow-up in the presentation department, but y'all the recipe is still pure perfection. Hickory-smoked bacon glazed in sugar and spices, served up hot and sticky.

It’s crunchy, smoky, sweet, and downright addictive. Perfect for sharing at the start of the meal (or keeping all to yourself, we won't judge).

📍 Times Square & Las Vegas 🔥 Real Smoke. Real Flavor. The Original New York BBQ. 🤠

🔥 THE SANDWICH THAT KEEPS FOLKS COMIN' BACK.

Our Chopped Beef Brisket Sandwich starts with lean and fatty brisket that's smoked low and slow until it's tender enough to melt in your mouth. Then we chop it fresh, pile it high on a toasted sesame bun, and top it with crunchy dill pickles, tangy pickled onions, and Virgil's signature House BBQ Sauce.
Every bite brings the perfect balance of smoky, juicy, tangy, and downright delicious.

There's a reason it's one of our most-loved sandwiches.
