Two New York BBQ Restaurants Named Best In America

New York State might not be known for its BBQ, but two BBQ restaurants in the "Empire" state were named some of the best in the country for delivery.

DoorDash recently released a list of the best BBQ restaurants for delivery in the USA, and two New York State restaurants made the list.

Best BBQ Restaurants For Delivery In New York State

One of the spots named the best for BBQ delivery is located in Western New York. Fat Bob's Smokehouse, located at 41 Virginia Place in Buffalo, was named one of the two best spots. They have been serving Buffalo since 1998 and are known for their smokehouse favorites of beef brisket, St. Louis pork ribs, pulled pork, and pulled chicken.

The other BBQ restaurant, named one of the best for BBQ delivery, was Dinosaur Bar-B-Que in Rochester, New York. While Dinosaur BBQ has several locations around New York State, the one in Rochester got the best ratings from DoorDash.

How Where The Best BBQ Spots For Delivery Chosen?

According to DoorDash, this list was complied by using data from DoorDash data between from May 2024 through April 2025. All the spots on the list were considered to be "small to medium-sized restaurants" and all have fewer than 10 stores. They also had the highest average overall customer rating, and each store had to have at least 1,000 reviews to qualify for this list.
