"Join the exuberant crowds" relishing "succulent ribs" at Danny Meyer's "real-deal BBQ" outlets, which "definitely satisfy a meat craving" even if you need "a shower afterward"; the bourbon list and "super-friendly staff" distract from settings that suggest "child-friendly" "suburbia" (and Murray Hill's original offers refuge in the Jazz Standard club downstairs).
