Entering Russell's we expected to eat one of the best bar-b-que restaurants in Chicago. We order a slab of ribs and a pork sandwich. The service was quick and we sat down to enjoy our bar-b-que. We poured on the sauce and dug in. After one bite of the pork sandwich we asked, ""What Is The Meat?"" The pork was dry, no flavor, and tasted like processed meat. We did not finish half the sandwich. First bite into the ribs we asked, ""How can someone mess up ribs?"" The ribs had no flavor, dry, and fatty. The sauce could not save the ribs or sandwich. The slaw, we will not even go there. Not able to eat the ribs, pork sandwich or slaw we tried the fries. Even the french fries had very little flavor and were soggy.
Pros: Good Parking, Inexpensive, Not Crowded
Cons: No Flavor, Dry Meat, Bad Sauce
