Brendan Sodikoff's Hogsalt group — the same team behind Au Cheval a few blocks away — opened this in 2014 down a brick-paved alley in the West Loop, and it drew lines almost immediately that still haven't really let up.

The brisket is the headline, but the banana pudding is the reason people mention this place unprompted months later.

Central Texas-inspired barbecue, warehouse-style room, rock music over the speakers, no reservations and no table service — order at the counter, first-come first-served, parties up to twelve. Brisket and the hot link are the two things regulars consistently rank above the pulled pork, though the pulled pork still holds its own. The Frito pie has its own cult following among the sides, alongside a broccoli salad that keeps coming up in reviews as the unexpected standout.

One detail worth knowing: there's a genuinely great ramen shop, High Five Ramen, tucked into the basement below — same building, completely different kitchen, worth a visit on its own if you're already in the alley. Seating is first-come, first-served picnic tables both inside and in an adjacent courtyard, and the patio welcomes dogs -- a real perk for a counter-service spot with this kind of line.
