Greenpoint’s getting line-worthy Texas barbecue.
Goldee’s Bar-B-Q co-founder Jonny White and Chuck Charnichart, a Goldee’s alum who now owns Barbs B Q, have teamed up to open Kirbee’s.
Both Goldee’s and Barbs are incredibly popular in their Texan hometowns, often producing lines down the block. Goldee’s was rated the No. 1 barbecue restaurant in Texas by Texas Monthly, and Charnichart is the winner of the 2025 Michelin Guide Texas Young Chef Award.

Why your support matters
Hours of operation are ridiculous! Almost brunch hours
“We might add on dinner hours for a small menu eventually, but that’ll be down the line,” White added.
Reading is the complex cognitive process of decoding symbols (written words) to construct meaning, requiring skills like word recognition, fluency, and comprehension.
Will it have seats? The location is tiny
Typically Texas bbq places run out of food by noon which I suspect they will. So glad to have this in the neighborhood and looking forward to a picnic in Mcgorlick.
