Hickory River Urbana: Serving Up "Texas Barbecue"
Friday, July 22, 2011 at 01:37AM 
If you haven't had the opportunity to give "Texas Barbecue" a try, stop by Hickory River in Urbana, Illinois. There you'll enjoy two masterfully smoked meat options that set Texas BBQ apart from all other regions: Beef Brisket and Polish Sausage.
Choose your Brisket chopped or sliced. Choose your Polish Sausage sliced lengthwise on a sandwich or into 'coins' on a platter. You'll be continuing a tradition that started over 150 years ago, when cattlemen from the Great West and immigrants from Central Europe grafted Beef Brisket and Smoked Sausage into the DNA of the Lone Star State. And, to go along with those awesome meat options, try our Ranch Beans and Texas-Style Chili. (You'll feel like you've died and gone to Austin!)
Of course, there are lots of highways between Texas and the other great barbecue regions of America. So Hickory River Smokehouse also offers other popular smoked meats that represent the Midwest, the Mid South and the Deep South: Pulled Pork, Baby Back Ribs, Smoked On-the-Bone Chicken, Ham, Turkey and Pork Loin.
When you're in the mood for a "quick tour" of the barbecue regions that make this country great, stop by Hickory River Smokehouse in Urbana. We do Texas--and lots of other places--right proud!

It is time for summer and its time for bringing out our hot sizziling bbq
out. Barbecue is usually done in
an outdoor environment by cooking and smoking the meat over wood or
charcoal. Restaurant barbecue may be cooked in large brick or metal ovens
specially designed for that purpose.
