Uncle John's BBQ

Roots reach back to when Mack opened at 69th and Calumet, carrying decades of South Side barbecue tradition. Orders center on soft, seasoned ribs, fries, and meatier, chewier tips. The cut is matched by a distinct finish: the house sauce runs sweeter and thicker, served mild or mixed at a brisk pace for dine-in, carryout, or ordering ahead.
