Q-BBQ - Elmhurst

Quality meats. Quick service. Quintessentially American.
That’s what Q-BBQ is all about.
From the backwoods of the Carolinas, to the meat markets of Texas, and the hole-in-the-walls of Memphis, Q-BBQ is inspired by authentic barbeque traditions and recipes across the country. Our signature dishes are crafted from locally-sourced meats, slathered with our special in house blend rub and smoked for up to 16 hours for an irresistible flavor that instantly teleports you to a backyard barbeque in a small southern town.

Food brings people together, barbeque builds community.
At Q-BBQ, we believe that barbeque is more than a way of cooking. It’s a ritual of slowing down and savoring time itself. It’s been nearly two decades since we first fired up our pit, but our mission remains the same — to rekindle a tradition that began when humans first gathered around a fire, smoked meats, told stories, and created the connections that started civilization.

We’ve won Michelin Guide awards for culinary excellence and People’s Choice trophies from Chicago’s Ribfest but the greatest testimony to our excellence is our patrons who queue up at our door for a taste of home.
