Here is a BBQ in Chicago thread: http://flyertalk.com/forum/showthrea...&highlight=BBQ

From that thread is a review I did of Uncle Bub’s

Ate at Uncle Bub's BBQ today, 132 South Cass Avenue, Westmont, IL.
Phone: 630.493.9000 open Mon-Sat 11am-9pm, Sun 12noon-9pm.

Had the usual(for me) holy BBQ trio of sliced Beef, hot link, and pulled pork.

The link was the best I have had ANYWHERE. The menu states it is homemade.
The texture was firm; it was very lean w/o much fat and with a good spice kick.
VERY GOOD!!!

Pulled pork was more of a shredded pork. Decent smoke flavor (would have like to taste
More), but it would make a great sandwich.

The sliced beef was not brisket, I believe it was a roast (horrors!!!) and sliced very very thin, almost shaved. It had no flavor and was very disappointing.

While the meat items came w/sauce on them. I would recommend asking for no sauce added to your plate. There are two BBQ sauces to choose from at your table. A regular and spicy. These sauces have a lot of molasses taste to them. I preferred the spicy.

My usual sides of coleslaw and potato salad were fine; I give the nod to the potato salad.

Uncle Bub's serves ribs as well. It is the only BBQ joint I know of that serves them by market price (like most lobster dishes I see).
