Thor's Grill? London's New BBQ Masterpiece

West London's Goldhawk Road is now home to Billy's Smokehouse, a new barbecue establishment that immediately impresses with its striking Leviathan Pits Arcadian live fire cage. This powerful grill, where meats smoke and sauces bubble, forms the centerpiece of the no-frills dining space, hinting at the culinary experience to come.

The kitchen is helmed by chef Tiberius Tudor, whose expertise was honed in the renowned barbecue scene of Texas. He utilizes a large US 'cue meat smoker, fueled by oak chips, to craft authentic flavors. Even the restaurant's name, "Billy's," evokes a sense of classic American barbecue tradition.

Dishes like the smoked beef sausages and the 'Briskwich' offer delicious, elevated takes on barbecue staples. However, the sliced brisket, prepared in the Central Texas style, is the true star. With its perfect smoke ring, savory bark, and rich marbling, it stands as a significant achievement in London's competitive barbecue landscape.
