Lucky for Chicagoans, the barbecue pro who hails from Unadilla, Georgia, chose\u00a0Chicago for\u00a0his very first restaurant venture ever. Located a block north of Wrigley Field, the venue will be a convenient stop for hungry Cubs fans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fmmsmokeshow%2Fposts%2F1099380933462012&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"180\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.destinationamerica.com\/tv-shows\/bbq-pitmasters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BBQ Pitmaster<\/a>\u00a0TV star thought Chicago would be the best location for this experimental venture.

Or maybe he figured Chicagoans would be most accepting of his explorative culinary efforts. Either way, Chicago can be glad to\u00a0claim\u00a0the first Myron Mixon restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>Mixon does have plans to expand, eventually opening other locations throughout the country.

While Mixon plays around with his menu, offering some creative options like barbecue tacos and nachos,\u00a0this\u00a0is not a trendy or fusion-style barbecue restaurant. The menu mostly includes classic\u00a0barbecue favorites like ribs,\u00a0brisket, and\u00a0their\u00a0fixings: &#8220;BBQ Georgia Peach Baked Beans,&#8221; \u00a0&#8220;Loaded Baked Potato Salad,&#8221; and &#8220;Baby Back Mac&#8221;.
