Blackwood BBQ on Clinton St. offers a delightful BBQ experience. The meats are succulent, infused with smoky goodness. The sides are equally impressive, and the service is top-notch. The casual yet inviting atmosphere adds to the charm. A must-visit for BBQ enthusiasts seeking flavorful, well-crafted dishes in a welcoming setting.
Really good Brisket and Burnt Ends. Mac and Cheese was really good as well.
Soda machine was down but they have cans while it’s getting fixed.
Good food and atmosphere. Staff very very friendly and helpful.
This place is clean, Staff is friendly and most important food is great! Totally affordable too. Good portion
The Mac and cheese is fantastic, if you like your bbq saucy, you'll have to ask for extra sauce.
I order this for the office regularly and everyone loves it. It's delicious and the staff is beyond kind and generous. They even deliver on bicycles to the local area -- catering for 150 comes on two cycles with carriages. It's delicious and eco friendly.
Generous portion when grabbing dinner here at the end of a long day. The pork was yummy and the sausages were pretty nice as well. I enjoy the pickles that you get with the meet, though the mac was pretty mediocre. Got the job done, but didn't blow me away. Perhaps would've been a bit more fresh and nice tasting for lunch? Might've gotten the leftovers...
Can't say enough about the great service here. The manager on duty, Ebony, was very kind when I came in for lunch and realized I had forgotten my wallet. I was so embarrassed, but she helped me out. And when I did at last sit down to enjoy my food, it was really great! Definitely recommend the Chicago style sauce on the pulled pork. Thanks a bunch to this whole crew!
I ordered the bbq brisket with South Carolina sauce. Order came with house made coleslaw and house made pickles. All was amazing!! Coleslaw even had a little kick, brisket was smoked perfectly with a nice smoke ring. Flavor was amazing and service was friendly and quick. They keep up with the fast paced world of Chicago. Will come again! Great work you guys, keep it up!
I go here for lunch quite often, around once every two weeks only due to me trying to be conservative on how much meat I eat. I used to come here once a week. I've eaten all their meat offerings and it goes in this order in terms of taste: ribs, brisket, pork, chicken. That order is also how things are priced. You won't be disappointed and the quality of food is high. Edit Due to Owner response regarding Jackfruit: I've had the Jackfruit sandwich a couple of times and it's very good. Can't tell it's not meat at all!
