#wrigleybbq

I don’t have a lot of barbecue food. I have only had barbecue related food at family barbecues; the food is limited to burgers and hot dogs, so I can hardly really call that “BBQ” food. Since I have very little to compare the food to, I can’t say I’m going to be an expert at it since I’m sure there are people out there that have had a lot of barbecue food. I will also say that I was starving when Justin and I went here and everyone knows that any food tastes amazing when you’re hungry. A lot of the time, Justin and I decide to do something different and just kind of wander aimlessly and stop to eat somewhere that just looks good to us. This never works. We end up wandering for at least 30 minutes and we just give up. Luckily, we found a place we wanted to try called Wrigley BBQ.

Wrigley BBQ is a few blocks away from the Wrigley Field. The restaurant itself is nothing special, but upon looking at the menu, my mouth started watering (a mix of how good the food sounded, the smell of barbecue, and how hungry I was). 

The menu consists of platters of barbecue, your choice between: brisket, smoked turkey breast, pulled pork, smoked pulled chicken, rib tips, or baby back ribs. They also serve burgers, and sandwiches with those various meat options. I got the pulled pork sandwich which comes with pickles on the side and cole slaw. I also got a side of baked smoked beans.

This was AMAZING. The cole slaw was great, the way cole slaw usually is for me, the pickles were clearly fresh and homemade (you can even tell in the picture). Justin usually hates pickles, but he actually loved them. Don’t even get me started on the pulled pork sandwich.

I have never had such a great pulled pork sandwich and the grill marks on the bread made it so much better. The pulled pork was juicy, and flavored to perfection. I thought it couldn’t get better. I was wrong.

Yes. These are various sauces that are available to try: Memphis Sweet, Wrigley Fire, Carolina Vinegar, and Texas Habanero. I couldn’t even decide on one to put the whole time so I kept alternating between all of them. I did particularly like Carolina Vinegar.

I want to go back right now. Overall, this was such a good choice, I will definitely go back and I recommend it to anyone who is a meat lover, or likes barbecue in general.
