"First in are a couple of handfuls of fries. Next come the rib tips, loudly cleavered right in front of us. Add a couple links of hot sausage and it is ready for the sauce, a thin and fiery mix with a dash of sweetness. Several ladles are poured on top. All this is crowned with two slices of white bread and a piece of wax paper before the top is closed. "

"As advertised, Barbara Ann’s Bar-B-Que sits in front, and in the parking lot, of a Chicago south side motel by the same name. We double-parked just out front for convenience and speed. It was mid-afternoon and business was slow, but as soon as we opened the car doors, the aroma hit us! "
