10Thirteen was founded by James G. while serving in the United States Navy. His vision was to bridge his passion for serving the people, cooking, and Chicago’s footwork culture together. You may have seen him featured on daytime television networks WGN, Day Time Chicago, & Morning in America. We’ve also been at some of your neighboring events such as; Chicago Carribean Carnival Fest, Indy 500, Nascar Brickyard Fest, and Super Motocross at Chicagoland Speedway. At 10Thirteen we bring the Nostalgic Backyard BBQ experience directly to your front door! All you have to do is host an event, choose the venue, and 10Thirteen takes care of the rest, freeing you up to unwind and take in the superb cuisine and ambience.
