Times critic Pete Wells files some impressions of a hot new barbecue restaurant on Twitter: "Brisket, beef rib at Hometown in Red Hook aren't bad; collards smoky, meaty; but hey, more than 1 guy slicing the 'cue would speed the line." And later: "Waited 10-15 mins w/ only a couple ppl in front of me; later the line was 20-25 ppl. They're the ones I worried about." [Twitter]
