I had some of the best BBQ I have ever had today (and I have had some really good BBQ). Driving back from Michigan to Chicago I decided to take the scenic route. I caught a glimpse of an outdoor smoking operation just off the parking lot of of the Goblin and Grocer on the Dunes Highway. The smells were just right so I decided to check it out. I loved it so much I decided to create an account here and tell folks about it. Each Sunday during the summer, a gentleman with deep experience as a chef
and a pitmaster brings his outdoor smoker and prepares a menu of delicious smoked meats. You can order them from your table or at the bar in the cafe.
He makes his own BBQ sauce and rubs. The sauce and rubs were complex in a delightful way. The brisket and ribs were smoked low and slow, the brisket overnight. The meat was full of smoky flavor, tender, juicy, with just the right texture.
The pitmaster is a friend of the G&G's chef . I love collaborations like this. I am going to go out of my way to take some friends over there while it is still summer. It will be worth the trip.
