barbeque. After reading their manifesto on BBQ philosophy on their website I had high expectations, but they were exceeded here. Everything we had was delicious. Somebody here is clearly thinking about balance and how the different flavors will harmonize, so the slaw complements the sauce which complements the meat, which goes nicely with the beans, etc. The standout was the St. Louis ribs -- smoky, flavorful, meaty, and neither too tough nor too tender. I cannot think of the last time or place that I have had better ribs. (For similar reasons, the smoked chicken was also excellent -- I wonder if the techniques are similar.) It's crowded, but remarkably well-organized (you order, then they seat you at a table roughly when your food is ready). Go now. There are only a few restaurants where patrons walk in with a smile on their face, order their food with a smile on their face, eat huge tender chunks of meat with a smile on their face, and leave with a smile on their face.
Smoque does that. When people talk about Chicago, lots of people mention the hot dogs or the deep dish, but they should really be talking about the BBQ. Food here is served as ala cart items or you can order meat with 2 sides and slaw. When you enter, you order and pay at the counter, but then they seat you and bring the food to you. The Meats: BBQ Brisket: This was one of the most tender and juicy cuts of meat I have ever had. In combination with the smokey char on the outside, you can tell that this meat had been smoked for no less than 14 hr. After 14 hrs this meet was so soft and tender on the inside that you thought it had been watching nothing but adorable puppies forever. Ribs: If you are a fan of getting messy when you eat BBQ, don't miss this treat. The meat literally melts off the bone. It has a Memphis style dry rub that really makes the ribs very savory with just a little bit of sweetness from the BBQ sauce. I did not want to use the wet naps afterwards, because i wanted
to lick all the sauce off my fingers. The Sides: mac and cheese: This mac and cheese was melty & rich and a great complement to the savory pile of meat. Slaw: Okay, I know that slaw might be an after thought for you. You think it's something that people throw at you because its easy to make, but I really liked their slaw. It was light and tangy and not to heavy. Overall, everyone is super friendly, the food is delicious, and you should eat here if you have the chance. Going early on a Sunday was great idea! No wait at all :) Best bbq in town hands down. I like the sliced brisket, hubby likes the pulled pork. Sometimes I have a sandwich and sometimes I do the platter. You really can't go wrong either way, probably just depends on how hungry you are. This last trip we tried a cheddar jalapeno sausage link that was AWESOME! Really tasty, little spicy, great real cheese flavor. Their coleslaw is amazing- vinegar based, no mayo, tangy and delicious. It's BYO which is always nice. We l
ive really close so we typically take it to go. However, for a to-go order, you will
