Located in Bedford, New York Brers has quickly established itself as a must visit destination for some good food in Westchester county. This local gem is led by a by a female pitmaster and graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, ensuring low-and-slow cooking techniques, with their signature brisket undergoing a meticulous 12 hour cook time. In early 2026 it remains a must-visit spot for anyone seeking authentic wood fired flavors.
The menu at Br’ers BBQ artfully balances classic barbecue with innovative chef driven creations that keep returning. The menu is organized by expertly smoked proteins especially the 15 hour salt and pepper crusted brisket and the back ribs which both consistently receive praise for their deep smoky flavor and tenderness. For those craving traditional platters, the “Swine Box” offers a diverse sampling of their most popular smoked meats and sides. Every bite is enhanced by their range of house made sauces, including the tangy Swine sauce and a popular hot honey.
Beyond traditional platters the restaurant shines with creative options like beef empanadas and the “Burnt ends Burrito” and the highly regarded brisket egg and cheese of which are perfectly complimented by their house made pimento mac and cheese. One of the restaurant’s most unique draws is its highly-acclaimed breakfast service, which is served daily until 11:00 AM. The brisket egg and cheese is the popular favorite and stands out as a top tier item on the menu. These hearty options provide a smoky smart to the day that few other establishments in the area can match.
The dining experience at Br’ers BBQ is casual and intimate, emphasizing quality food over a large, formal seating area. While the physical location is small with limited indoor seating, the friendly counter service and cozy, clean atmosphere make it ideal for a quick bite or a high end takeout experience. Despite minor challenges with parking Brers BBQ delivers exceptional culinary experiences that satisfy all people that enjoy some good BBQ. One of my personal favorites is the Classic Chicken tenders, some of the best chicken I have ever tasted.
