BBQ joints put Texas style BBQ to draw customers, some add Craft BBQ raise prices.

I haven’t been there yet. It opened a few months ago and friends of mine have been there. Heard nothing but good things. Definitely looking forward to trying it. The more restaurants in downtown Park Ridge the better.

I don't know about BBQ but there is great Pizza in Chicago. I assume BBQ too.

I see they advertise their pork as Kilgus Farms Berkshire pork -- never heard of them but they are apparently from downstate and retail in the Chicago area, any familiarity with them.

I used to live by their turkey supplier, Ho-Ka.

I had it once. It was ok. Not super blown away.
