Restaurants come and go at a pretty quick pace along Division Street in Wicker Park, but this iconic barbecue spot — the flagship of the 4 Star Restaurant Group — has been around since 1994. Perhaps t…

I was excited to try this place because the prices seemed reasonable (for a DoorDash storefront) and because the reviews were mostly positive.
However, the food quality is tough to vouch for. The brisket looks nothing like the product photo and it had an unbelievable amount of fat on it (reference photos attached). I personally do not like fat so picking around it left me with a couple brisket crumbs which do not align with what the platter image shows... The pulled pork was also pretty lackluster- no flavor, very dry, and it came unpulled. The sides were mediocre as well with the cornbread being dry and bland, the mac and cheese needed some garlic or flavor, and the baked beans portion didn't even fill half the cup of the takeout container.
Overall, I would not order takeout from here again and would pass on the cornbread and brisket entirely. The sauce selection (4 side cups) and the amount of toast (4 1/2 pieces) were the highlight of the dinner.

Probably the worst BBQ I've had. The briskets and burnt ends were soooo dry. Very small portions, as well. Not worth the money.

Literally everything from the boiled tasting chicken, to the terrible brisket, to the stale tasting Mac & cheese and beans, all the way to the heel of bread that I was given was awful. Portions were SMALL.

The brisket was overcooked, dry, chewy and disgusting. Even my dog refused to eat it after the first piece I gave her. A dog refused food. The picture I took is from some of the brisket I threw in the trash. Look at that travesty, no smoke ring, just gray filth.
Ribs were fantastic, salad was great, pulled pork sammich was good, very light on the meat. Im very sad Smoke Daddy has fallen off a cliff. I used to go there specifically for brisket and ribs, now all they have is ribs. Don't bother with these guys, order from Green Street smoked meats. *Smoked Meat Platter
