by Jeff Pearl, Chicago City Guide for the Menuism Blog
When it comes to barbecue, Chicago isn't usually the first city to come to mind. "Chicago Style" barbecue is a questionable mix of techniques often involving a combination of dry rub, sauce, and usually some slow roasting or even boiling of ribs. Plenty of places just choose to incorporate a mix of other popular barbecue styles. Either way, I've had a lot of barbecue that doesn't cut it, so I hope that my list of Chicago's Best BBQ Spots will save you some time.
