"More than three years have passed since the death of Hecky Powell, who in 1983 brought his Chicago-style aquarium-smoked meats to suburbanites at his restaurant, Hecky’s Barbecue. His legacy, however, remains and continues to fill the bellies and hearts of Evanston locals with Creole recipes passed down from his mother and grandmother. Hecky’s biggest hits include rib tips, hot links, brisket, and its signature Juneteenth Strawberry Soda." - Naomi Waxman, Samantha Nelson
