What is CCK?

Why should you give a damn?

Welcome to our kitchen – Chicago Culinary Kitchen!

Here, our BBQ is legendary, our cocktails are classic & our beers are craft! Whether you dine with us, order some Q’ to-go or attend one of our unique events, we guarantee you will feel like you’ve been taken on a journey without feeling like you’ve been taken for a ride!

BBQ is an artisan craft & requires commitment. Our meats are delivered fresh & great care is taken when we prepare each cut to be smoked in our Ole Hickory Smokers. We use kiln-dried cherry wood in order to impart the delicious & natural sweet smoky flavor while encouraging a rich mahogany color. Our hand-crafted meats are smoked daily so that we can serve hot, fresh BBQ every day! Great BBQ is not fast food nor is cheap!

Why Texas-inspired? We don’t douse our meats with sauce. True to Texas-style, we let the meat be the star of the plate! The seasonings are chosen specifically to enhance the natural flavors inherent to each meat. The mixture of simple spices, cherry wood, our techniques & most-of-all PATIENCE creates the masterpiece that defines our BBQ.
People travel the world to eat the best BBQ – there are few cuisines with that kind of devotion.
