Tips
- Smoked beef tri-tip on brioche kicked with BBQ rub-dusted fries.
- Try the fruit shortcake from our 100 Best list: This sweet-as-pie biscuit-and-fruit concoction (the fruit varies with the season) is good enough to go toe-to-toe with any of the fancier takes.

- Tri-tip sandwich and smokey BBQ, is the way to go. So damn good. Fries are awesome too!

- The ribs here - lean and mean baby backs rubbed out in Carolina dirt - made our list of the 40 Reasons to Love Chicago.
- Try the hushpuppies with the sweet potato sauce! Delish!
- Stay with the appetizers. The entrees are disappointing.
- Go for the tri-tip, very tender
- Amazing pulled pork. The meat has incredible flavor on its own, and then you can choose from their line of sauced to add a regional style. I recommend the vjnegar-based ENC.
- The tri-tip sandwich was seriously the best BBQ sandwich I've ever had. Get the strawberry fields forever cocktail
- If you want to journey across the Carolinas in a single sitting, head to Lillie's Q, where they serve all three versions of the Carolina sauce vinegar, ketchup and mustard.
- If your Hubby goes to Cracker Barrel without you, get him back by going to Lillie's Q
