General Info

Windy City Pizza & BBQ combines the friendliness of a small town Texas cafe with the fun atmosphere and energy level of a Chicago neighborhood tavern. Chicago favorites like Deep Dish Pizza, Italian Beef Sandwiches and Vienna Hot Dogs join up with genuine Texas Pit Smoked BBQ for a sweet combination of good eating. Come see us. GENUINE PIT-SMOKED TEXAS BAR-B-Q: Start with a custom-built Texas pit smoker - big enough to feed a Sunday-after church, hungry, hat-wearing crowd, usually about 1,000lbs-plus of un-Vegeterian deliciousness. A firebox load of post-oak to cook the meat with just smoke and heat...and you're ready to carry on the tradition of low and slow cooking with a pit-master's touch to render the meat down to its basic, juicy, smoky tenderness... That's what I'm talking about!...then there's the pizza...CHICAGO DEEP DISH PIZZA: All the cattle were driven from Texas up to Chicago to market, a wonderful thing happened. The Southern cornbread - cooked in a big cast iron skillet - was introduced to sauce, meat and cheese in a blackened 2" deep baking pan. Nothing's been the same since!
