Was talking to a cousin and he was saying Gene & Jude’s was rally good but Johnnies Beef in Elmwood park is a must have and the Italian beef combo with sweet & hot peppers is off the charts pure Chicago 

What do you have to say about Johnnie’s Beef??

I've had the chicken hind quarters marinating for 2 days, going to grill it tonight. The avocado salad is yummy! The green sauce is excellent as well, even if I misread the amount of salt and added too much.
I'll edit this later to report on everything.

I used a little too much broth in the rice so it wasn't fluffy, but still tasted good. The chicken was great by itself but really good with the green sauce. The sauce was the star of the show, I'll be keeping some in the fridge pretty regularly, although I'll make it with serranos in the future. It helped the rice as well.
