T-BIRDS — Downtown Racine, WI

T-BIRDS is Racine's smoked turkey wing spot at 619 Wisconsin Ave, serving hickory-smoked (not fried) all-flat turkey wings marinated overnight in a Cajun dry rub, with hand-cut cottage fries, freshly-squeezed lemonade, and Southern sweet tea. Founded by Ollie Banks — the "T" stands for both Turkey and his late grandfather's 1956 Thunderbird — it grew from a backyard pursuit and a popular food trailer across Southeastern Wisconsin into its first brick-and-mortar location in downtown Racine.
