I considered myself an expert on bbq but was unaware of Chicago having their own style of bbq. When I heard about it I had to find the place that would define Chicago-style bbq. Based upon much research I discovered hands down Lem's was the place to do this for me. The staff was friendly an the food was delicious. I am definitely going to have to swing by again if I am ever in Chicago.

We were in The Chi, visiting from Houston for July 4th and The Chosen Few. This spot has great food and great service. You won’t be disappointed. I’m from Texas and I know what good BBQ is. Trust me, Lems has some great BBQ. REAL TALK
