text 14 Jan The Brooklyn Beefsteak Returns

The BROOKLYN BEEFSTEAK is back, bigger and badder! Endless pitchers of McSorley’s Light and Dark Ale on every table, mountains of choice steak cuts, and absolutely no utensils. All enjoyed to the sweet tunes of Brooklyn’s favorite hillbilly boogie band, Susquehanna Industrial Tool & Die Company.

This is a celebration of America’s favorite libation and our carnivorous inclinations. Boisterous crowds committed to communal singing are not only welcome, but encouraged at this winter affair. At the height of 1880s New York celebration, Tammany Hall politicians invented the all-you-can-eat-and-drink beef and beer feast to buy votes. The flash-in-the-pan extravaganzas were fashionable among New York’s elite, but lost favor in the early 20th century, surviving only in backwaters of New Jersey.

After 100 years in exile, come one, come all, to partake in the raucous atmosphere of the New York docks and saloons of years past.

$45 Ticket includes:
All-you-can-eat slices of steak
All-you-can-drink McSorley’s Light and Dark Ale
Peanuts, pickles, and a delicious side
LIVE MUSIC by Susquehanna Industrial Tool & Die Company
A souvenir apron to remember the good times
+ an eating contest, communal singing, and all-around shenanigans!

quote 13 Jan
The New York steak dinner, or beefsteak, is a form of gluttony as stylized and regional as the riverbank fish fry, the hot-rock clambake, or the Texas barbecue.
— Joe Mitchell (1939, The New Yorker, “All You Can Hold For Five Bucks”)
