Cool stuff to do at Chicago. Also: NC BBQ

If I had a pig, I would name it BBQ.

Please don't talk about Chicago pizza, I haven't had it since I last drove through there like 4 years ago. Despite being Brooklyn born that pizza is legit, I'm always half tempted to get it flown out but I'm afraid that it won't taste the same. I tried folding that slice and it did not end well though lol, broke the slice in 2.

Texas Roadhouse, has excellent Texas style bbq, and the bread they serve with the meals....out of this world. Sadly I only know of a few Texas Roadhouses, and they're all in the sw burbs by me, haven't seen any up north or in the city.

They also have excellent salad and chili, but their BBQ sucks ass hole.

My mom had a potbelly pig named Porsche once, used to joke that her real name was BBQ Bacon Babyback, but we just called her Porsche to avoid upsetting her.

Perhaps it varies by location? When I've had it there before, I thought it rocked. ::Shrug::

I've never been, don't fucking trust BBQ up here

Okay, I've never fucking been to the taste. I am a bad Chicagoan. I need to fix that this year.

There's this place called Brothers back by my old apartment in Palatine, there's 1-2 more of them around the suburbs but they're pretty damn legit.

Come to NC, go to the pit, get some pulled pork, your life will be changed.

[isladar]

Yup, that's the one I've been to.

Okay you've got to be right by me, that's hilarious.

That's not the Taste itself, 'Tastes of Chicago' is a Lou Malnati's/Portillo's/Carson's/Eli's Cheesecake mail-order service.

Ha, I thought you lived more up by Cal. Where abouts are you in this area?

Oh shit man, don't even get me started on Portillo's! That shit, best fast food in the region. Loooooooove Portillo's.

By the way the Neely's from Memphis that do the BBQ show on FN, their BBQ is shit.

g/f's parents tried to coax us into moving to Ohio by offering us a free house, I told them any state that does not have a Portillo's is not even remotely close to my list of states I would possibly move to.

Right by 59 / 75th, like so Naperville it's actually Aurora. I can spit on Whole Foods.

This is actually what her and I do when we hang out.

I know like three dudes who mail order that shit religiously, but it is not the fucking same.
