Texas-style barbecue arrived in Copenhagen through the city's craft-beer scene rather than any Southern diaspora, so the smokers tend to share a roof with breweries. WarPigs Brewpub on Flæsketorvet, set in the old slaughterhouse halls of Vesterbro's Kødbyen, runs a Texas smokehouse beside 23 beers brewed on site. The same kitchen sells brisket, pulled pork and ribs by weight at the counter, so a tray of smoked meat need not cost a fortune.
