I’m sure I don’t need to tell you because if you’re looking at this listing, you already know… This place is amazing. Some of the very best barbecue and brisket I’ve ever had. Try the Gouda mac & cheese. It’s surprisingly wonderful combination of a little bit of pepper and a whole lot of wonderful cheese! Come check this place out!
First time here and was glad we stopped in. Large portions and very tender brisket and turkey. Baked beans were yummy. Wished for more options on BBQ sauces. Wife like the mac and cheese. Reasonable pricing for quality and qty of food

After navigating the twists and turns of Illinois Caverns like BBQ-hungry Indiana Joneses, we were hangry enough to gnaw on a hiking pole. Luckily, Shorty’s Smokehouse in the heart of downtown swooped in like a smoked meat superhero. 🦸♂️🍗
