*Hometown Bar-B-Que is looking to hire a General Manager who will be an asset to a dynamic and compassionate team.*

Hometown Bar-B-Que opened in Red Hook, Brooklyn, in September 2013. We specialize in authentic, pit-smoked meats prepared in the classic Southern technique of smoking on oak wood. We also incorporate a variety of flavor profiles that represent our local communities.

In classic barbecue style, we offer walk-up service to our counter on a first-come, first-served basis—until we sell out of that day’s specially cooked offerings.

Working at Hometown Bar-B-Que is based on a simple idea: we believe that authentic BBQ makes life better. That means hiring dynamic leaders who are excited about serving our guests the best BBQ in New York and who have shown themselves to be the very best in their fields.

The General Manager position demands creativity daily, excellent communication and problem-solving skills, and the ability to maintain the highest level of standards.
