Cowboy hats, wagon wheels and vintage American flags decorate this East Harlem honky-tonk. With a mile-long menu of every variety of barbecued meat, Harley’s Smokeshack is a carnivore’s dream come true. The St. Louis spare ribs (half rack for $18.95, full rack for $29.95), brisket ($18.95), pulled pork ($17.95) and half barbecue chicken ($17.95) all get cooked in the wood-burning Southern Pride smoker to lock in that authentic flavor. Can’t decide? Get it all in the aptly named “table breaker,” plus your choice of three large sides ($49.95). Think mac and cheese ($6.95), spicy greens ($5.95), garlic bread ($3.95) and corn on the cob ($3.95), to name just a few of the options. Then there’s the rest of the menu of classic crowd-pleasers: jalapeno poppers ($8.95), deep fried buttermilk chicken breast ($16.95), cornmeal-crusted catfish po’boy ($15.95), gumbo ($8.95) and more. Thankfully, there’s also a full beer, wine and cocktail menu to help you wash it all down.
