The Windy City Smokeout started cooking Thursday in Chicago.
Over 30 vendors have set up camp to serve food at the festival, with barbecue on the menu for most of them. Locals like Bub City and Green Street Smoked Meats are showcasing their dishes, as are restaurants from around the country. Pitmasters from Texas, Mississippi and Arkansas have also made the trip into the city.
For meals that fall outside of the barbecue scope, festival-goers can munch on Spanish tapas from Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba, hot dogs from The Duck Inn or ice cream from Pretty Cool Ice Cream.
