"Even though Lem’s Bar-B-Q doesn’t have a designated place to eat, this Chicago staple draws crowds year-round. But the summer is the prime Lem’s time, since it lets you have instant BBQ gratification. Transform your car hood into a picnic table, dive face first into rib tips slathered in mild sauce, and watch as the line of people grows and it becomes a spontaneous BBQ block party. Definitely ask for extra napkins." - nick allen, john ringor
