Ribfest!
A brisket sandwich from Smoque, an amazing BBQ place on the North side.
I just found out about Chicago’s Ribfest on June 12-14th. I will most definitely be going to this. Not only do they have 65,000 pounds of meat (!!!), they have a lot of bands, including Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin (from Springfield, MO), who I know personally (yeah, I dropped that). Their music is delightful. The other band I recognized was the very talented and original Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s (a Chicago band).
Anyone ever been?
unrelated: I got a beer of the month club subscription as a gift from my dentist for graduation. awesome. I promise I will update my beer going-ons soon, I have much to write about.
