Hecky’s Barbecue was introduced to me by my colleague who gave me his endorsement of the restaurant. At the time, I bookmarked on Yelp with hopes to visit, but never got the chance until now. Hecky Powell recently passed away due to Covid-19 complications and the community he served shared how much he meant and the difference he made. It spoke volume about the character of him as a man and it is heartwarming knowing that a black owned business can make such an impact in a community like Evanston Illinois.
I really enjoyed these Chicago style tips! Those tender tips were smothered in barbecue sauce and tasted like heaven. Hehe, I told my co-worker that I will definitely be ordering them again in the future as I moaned how good they were.
The Juneteenth strawberry soda tasted very good; it was not like your average strawberry soda that has that sugary taste.

you know the BBq is good when it has a piece of white bread to soak up the grease!
I love it. I have been wanting more of their ribs for a few weeks now.
i am a pulled pork wet sauce fan – ribs though have to dry rub!
Almost visited one in my neighborhood earlier, but didn’t have the patience. It was hot and they had shitty parking. Looked like they had no air conditioning inside too, so I kept driving
They are supposed to be hot the counter should be covered and of course they hand you the food in a brown paper bag. that is bbq!
Well, I’ll preorder, then pickup instead of hanging out in the sweatbox.
i understand that – smart move!
Have not eaten a barbecue for a while now.
I love barbecue! I don’t eat it enough because so many have a bad reputation.
