"The acclaimed barbecue restaurant offers an a la carte menu for pickup on Wednesday, November 27 in Evanston, Avondale, and West Loop. Choose from a wide array of entrees including herb-roasted or Cajun-smoked turkey breast, roasted ham with ginger chutney, and braised duck quarters, flanked by sides like green bean casserole, mac and cheese, candied yams, and much more. Orders can be placed through Tock." - Eater Staff

"Chef D’Andre Carter has made a big splash in Chicago with his rich, smokey barbecue and soul food like shrimp and grits, earning a sizable following that’s spawned virtual outposts and a food hall stall. Now ranked among the area’s top barbecue contenders, Soul & Smoke actually originated in Evanston and patrons can still snag pickup orders from the operation’s out-of-the-way home base. The brisket is world class and a full restaurant is in the works. An expansion is in the works." - Naomi Waxman, Samantha Nelson

"One of the best barbecue restaurants in Chicago, Soul & Smoke serves up Texas-style brisket, hickory-smoked spare ribs, and house-cured and smoked pastrami from a takeout window with picnic tables outside. Gather some friends and order meat by the pound or just indulge with a lunch special featuring two pulled pork sliders topped with apple slaw with collard greens or chicken gumbo on the side. A full restaurant is in the works." - Samantha Nelson
