Smoke Daddy at Division and Wood St. has great bbq and live jazz music after 9pm.  Most of their bbq sandwiches are around $5 and the platters cost around $8-$12.

I would highly recommend Twin Anchors on Sedgwick (and Eugenie?) a few blocks north of North Avenue.

Was just there on Wednesday night (for the 3rd time) had the rib tips and it was definately the fall of the bone type. VERY sweet BBQ sauce!

Good luck with your search for good BBQ!

P.S. Excellent band there that night (course I'm friends with them so I'm partial). BoDeans tribute band called... Naked! I did their web site at http://pwp.starnetinc.com/naked
