From the local food press
Editor’s picks from published local guides
Speed Queen has served Walnut Street since the 1950s, with a brick pit and a sauce forward Milwaukee barbecue style. Rib tips are the defining order, but pork shoulder, chicken, and slabs of ribs broaden the choices. The late hours, walk up rhythm, and unmistakable smoke make this a living piece of the city's barbecue history.
