Where To Forget The Internet Exists In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Lem’s has been around since 1954, and is probably the only BBQ restaurant your uncle who’s visited here exactly once knows about. History aside, this carryout-only spot in Chatham still makes some of our favorite ribs in the city, which will cover your hands in so much sauce you’ll be unable to constantly refresh your Instagram feed. They’re aquarium-smoked, and the sweet, vinegary mild sauce is a perfect counterpart to the fatty meat. Also, the ribs come on a bed of fries that soak everything up, which is just plain thoughtful." - veda kilaru, john ringor, adrian kane
