Small Batch Barbecue - Forest Park

I am a BBQ fanatic, traveling the USA and were among most of the going to Q Spots in N.C, S.C. Texas St Louis, Memphis and Kansas City my personal favorite Fiorellas Jack jack in KC. Small Batch a hidden gem in the Forest Park/ Chicago Area. Fried Okra would keep his own in South Carolina, brisket, pork, ribs are all going to courts. If you can go to Texas, SC, KC, etc. this spot will satisfy you and make you happy!!!!! If you have been in Green Street meat, a good place, this place is better!!!!!

Found Small Batch searching for fried okra. We were mostly interested in the okra, so we sampled several sides also. Solid and damn good. Much better than we’ve had at other bbq shops around. Already planning another trip back for more okra and to try out the meats.

Glad I made the effort for pick up over a delivery restaurant. Ribs were delicious, I did not even use the sauce they supplied on the side. Mac and Cheese was heavenly!

Had been excited to try the bbq here and got half slab of ribs today and they were super dry, not much smoke and had almost no flavor.. Really bummed, was dying for some good ribs today.

This hidden gem in Forest Park has some of the tastiest bbq in the area which is saying a lot. I would rank their wings in the top 10 in the whole Chicagoland area...
