mmm, ribs!

a couple months ago chad and i realized the fact that we are so busy was causing us extreme tiredness which was causing us to never spend time together which was causing depression. ugh! so what is a young couple with too much work, and a nagging case of deprivation depression to do? why, date night of course! in remedy of this problem, twice a month we indulge ourselves and splurge on a night of decadence and care-freedom! which, in reality isn't a date, since we're poor and we always split the cost, and it isn't always that decadent because, as stated, we're poor. none-the-less, it's a great way to spend time and enjoy each other's company. this week we decided to check out chicago's bbq scene and hit up "fat willie's rib shack". this joint is apparently one of the best in chicago. naturally, we ventured out to compare this alleged "award winning" bbq to the best we've ever tasted, a.k.a. "knucklehead's bbq" of missoula, mt. i truly expected for the big city critically acclaimed bbq place to give the small town joint a run for it's money. but, after scarfing down half a brisket sandwich, and some pretty good fries the consensus was in and i have to say that "knucklehead's" is the prevailing champion of the world. thanks "knucklehead's" for gracing my taste buds with delicious brisket.

considering the disappointing outcome on the side of the chicago challenger, i don't have any pics to post of "fat willie's" shack. only of me standing outside the car, getting ready to set off on our taste quest, with me driving (since chad lost his wallet).
