⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Absolute Best Ribs in Chicago, Hands Down!
You hear a lot of talk about who has the best BBQ in Chicago, but let me tell you—the search ends here. The Piggery isn't just serving great barbecue; they are setting the gold standard, particularly for their ribs.
I ordered the full rack, and from the moment they hit the table, I knew it was something special. The smoke ring was perfect, and the meat was so ridiculously tender that it practically fell off the bone just from looking at it. There’s a perfect balance of smoky flavor and that rich, savory rub, and their signature sauce complements it perfectly without overpowering the meat.
Seriously, if you are a ribs fanatic, you must try this place. I've eaten at every major BBQ spot in the city, and I can confidently say that The Piggery has the best ribs in Chicago, hands down. Pair that with their friendly service and fun decor with a casual comfort, and you’ve got a mandatory stop for anyone visiting or living in the area. Go. Get the ribs. You won't regret it!

I had burnt ends meal, one piece was a little hard but the second piece was very tender and moist. They have lots of specials during the week and more on the weekends. I would recommend going and trying some of there food. They have a golf simulator to practice your swing or have some fun with your buddies.

We were in the mood for ribs, and The Piggery had served us great ones in the past. Unfortunately, this visit was a disappointment. We started with the Buffalo Chicken Firecrackers, which were average. For the main course we ordered a rack of ribs with coleslaw and fries, along with sides of green beans and mac and cheese. The ribs came out very dry, with the top burnt and chewy. The sides were decent, but they are not what we came for. Hopefully we just caught a bad rack or one that had been on the smoker too long. We might give it another try, but this experience left us underwhelmed.

Many, many pubs just slap together sides, or worse, get them off a truck. Not here! I was really impressed with the quality of the vegetable sides that came with the ribs - also clearly a custom sauce, unusual and delicious. Wonderful neighborhood atmosphere and friendly service from Aly :-)
