Brother Jimmy's BBQ Turns Back Hands Of Time With Old 1989 Prices

Manhattan’s iconic Brother Jimmy’s announced today it will celebrate its 20th Anniversary on July 22, 2009, by turning back prices to its original menu from 1989. On July 22, prices in five locations will be set back, while the 2nd Avenue location will celebrate the original opening prices for the entire week: July 20-26, 2009.

In commemoration of this milestone, Josh Lebowitz, CEO of Brother Jimmy’s BBQ and Corporate Executive Chef Eva Pesantez have created a special menu of original favorites and new specialties. Traditional sandwiches like Pulled Pork Sandwiches are turned back to $6.95 add slaw for 25¢, Sliced Brisket Sandwich $6.95 and Grilled Chicken Sandwiches $6.50; while Brother Jimmy’s all time favorite dinners like Northern or Southern-style RIBS are $12.95, Half BBQ Chicken $8.95, and famous Pulled Pork Dinner only $9.95.

Combined with $2 Natural Lights, $2.50 Rolling Rocks and $12 Signature ½ Gallon Swamp Water, the 1989 Brother Jimmy’s-style party is complete. In addition to reverting back to their initial prices, Brother Jimmy’s will debut several new lines of men’s and women’s t-shirts, available in all locations. You can check out the adjusted menu after the jump.

Originating in a time when BBQ was nearly non-existent in Manhattan, Brother Jimmy’s defined southern BBQ and cultivated nightlife in the borough that made it famous. In 1989, Jimmy Goldman created a simple idea from Southern recipes gathered from friends and family. This idea was embraced by customers in 1989 and has exploded since the company was sold to current CEO of Brother Jimmy’s, Josh Lebowitz, in 2000.

The business has grown from a simple BBQ hangout and refined into a brand that embodies consistent, quality Southern BBQ for lunch, dinner and brunch; a nightlife venue consistently rated at the top in several categories of Zagat Nightlife; and a home to everyone from sports fans to celebrities.

- at The Original: 1485 2nd Ave, 212.288.0999

Good morning, my news cast family, you too chuck. On behalf of me and the staff that i work with. Thank you Brother Jimmy's for giving us wonderful memories. We will continue to go there every Friday and Saturday to drink your over sized fishbowls and eating everything. I have counted and i have over 25 alligator's in my house. I wish i could upload pictures here to show you the fun we have there.
Really want to show love to Brother Jimmy's on 92nd. and 3rd. Ave, who has the sexiest ladies; better than the hooter girls. Hugz and kisses. Thanxs Pix for representing.
