Brewski to serve up new concept at Quayside this autumn

Peel Retail & Leisure has announced that the creators of Manchester’s much-loved restaurants Brewski and American Pies are set to launch new concept, BIG TRAY BBQ, at Quayside this autumn, adding another exciting offer to the destination’s line-up of food and beverage brands.

Spanning 5,235 sq ft and inspired by Brewski’s ongoing culinary tour of the United States of America, BIG TRAY BBQ will bring a bold, counter-service smokehouse to Quayside, serving up BBQ by weight, homemade sides, and standout sauces. BIG TRAY BBQ will bring classic Texas techniques all the way through to ‘Nu Skool’ cutting edge smoked meats and flavours.

With smoke and spice at the heart of the new concept, customers can expect Brewski’s famous crowd-pleasing portions but with a twist. As well as counter-side carving, new dishes include 16-hour brisket, hot honey jalapeño cornbread, and loaded trays of jerk chicken sausage, smoked birria lamb shanks and ribs.

Ben Hey, Asset Director at Quayside, said: “The decision to introduce this new concept to Quayside, from one of Manchester’s most loved food brands, is a real testament to the growth of the area, and our exciting plans for the future. We know they’re going to bring something completely unique for our visitors, and we can’t wait to see the new concept thrive here at Quayside.”

James Daly and Steven Stockton-King, Co-Founders of Brewski, added: “We’re delighted to be launching our latest concept BIG TRAY BBQ at Quayside later this year. As a Manchester-based brand, it was important that our next chapter stayed true to our roots. We’re excited to bring something completely new to Quayside’s growing food scene and be part of what’s to come at the destination for the local community.”    

BIG TRAY BBQ by Brewski brings something different to Quayside’s food scene, joining Salford’s newest and biggest food hall Kargo MKT, as well as family-favourites Pizza Express, Turtle Bay, and more.
