Bethpage, Rockville Centre tie in firehouse BBQ cook-off

Charles Razenson fired up his red offset smoker just after 6 a.m. on Friday outside Fairway Market in Westbury and began prepping his signature dish, brisket and special “cupcake” chicken.

Razenson, whose baby back ribs won the inaugural Firefighters Museum BBQ Cook-Off in 2009, was back to bring home the prize for the Bethpage Fire Department.
