Seward, Minneapolis
Indigenous BBQ, Sean Sherman
Šhotá
Sean Sherman’s Indigenous barbecue counter inside NATIFS Wóyute Thipi, the old Seward Co-op Creamery on Franklin. The name means smoke or clouds in Dakota, the same word that lives inside Minnesota. The kitchen follows the Owamni rules with no wheat flour, dairy, or cane sugar, and turns out smoked meats and fish alongside maple-baked beans, dirty wild rice, braised greens, and a three sisters bison stew. The decolonized menu, now in barbecue form.
