INdulge: Why do dads love to grill? This BBQ dish was best thing I ate in Indy this week
A month after florists and brunch restaurants encouraged us to treat our mothers like the angels they are, the great big capitalist machine offers a different approach to celebrate dad: why not give some meat to the old fart? The bond between grilled meat and the platonic ideal of an American dad is as strong as his stereotypical monstrous calves and as enduring as the combover he refuses to let die. Ahead of Father's Day, for this week's INdulge I explored that relationship with a hefty portion of: Drive past the intersection of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and 25th Streets with your window down, and you'll likely catch a whiff of the all-consuming aroma radiating from the stout white brick building that houses Bar-B-Q Heaven, pitmaster Ronald Jones' 73-year-old Indianapolis institution. One source of that smoky siren call is Bar-B-Q Heaven's turkey ribs, which I shamelessly scarfed down on a recent visit. Beat the heat with a cold one: 12 Indianapolis breweries to visit this summer Notably, turkey 'ribs' aren't ribs — the mighty feathered terror that is the turkey doesn't yield chest bones with much meat on them — but rather the bird's shoulder blade. Three such slabs comprise Bar-B-Q Heaven's turkey ribs ($16.49 with two sides), which come doused in a reflective orange-red coating of barbecue sauce. The faux rib is as tender as white meat gets, practically ejecting itself from the bone. The sauce, which I ordered hot (you can also choose sweet or mild), livens up the turkey with faintly fruity sweetness and a brief yet punishing flash of heat. Whether from the sauce, mid-June humidity or sheer meat consumption, you're unlikely to conclude a meal on Bar-B-Q Heaven's patio with a dry forehead. We've discussed previously in INdulge how American barbecue is inextricable from Black culture — Bar-B-Q Heaven is one of Indy's oldest Black-owned eateries — dating back to enslaved Africans who adapted the native Jamaican Taíno technique of cooking meat on racks of sticks called barabicu. For today's column, though, I wanted to examine barbecue specifically as it relates to dads. Previously in INdulge: These jerk chicken wings are best thing I ate in Indy this week In the 1950s, the commercial availability of outdoor gas and Weber charcoal grills offered anyone with a backyard the power of the fire pit. Though many early advertisements for grills marketed the product toward America's homemakers, aka mothers and women, the target audience eventually swung to men. Researchers have offered several explanations for why that might be, many of which center around the naturalistic fallacy that men were simply made for meat and fire. Brands were quick to lean into that somewhat dubious (today's scholars suspect prehistoric gender roles were much less defined than originally thought) yet widely embraced belief. Summer is (almost) here: 20+ Indy-area patios for dining and drinking outside Nowadays, you don't have to search too hard online to find some pseudoscientific dreck about how eating meat connects a man to his primal forefathers. The same corner of social media that instructs men to triple their testosterone by guzzling raw milk often bemoans how far we have fallen from our elite hunter ancestors, as if the fellas were out in the tundra throwing haymakers at woolly mammoths all day. It may well be that grill makers and meat producers pounced on that vague association, profiting enormously. American psychologist and marketing expert Ernest Dichter, for one, in 1955 encouraged companies to brand foods as tied to gender identity, such as selling men the idea that meat was inherently manly. Frankly, as someone who grew up in the digital age, I find the line between genuine human experience and manufactured marketing content can blur. There are plenty of so-called masculine activities I do thoroughly enjoy — grilling, drinking beer, reading Hemingway — in a way that feels totally natural, even though I'm pretty sure cavemen never shotgunned a Miller Lite nor read 'A Sun Also Rises.' Moreover, the exact science behind the phenomena doesn't change the fact that many men, dads certainly included, simply love barbecue. The next chance you get, consider celebrating Pops with a heavy-duty clamshell box of turkey ribs, even if that's a minuscule repayment for someone who helped raise you — which, to me, seems like a terrifying and impossibly difficult task. Then again, if it nets you free barbecue once a year, perhaps I do see the appeal of this whole fatherhood thing. What: Turkey ribs, $16.49 Where: Bar-B-Q Heaven, 2515 Dr. MLK Jr. St., (317) 926-1667 and 877 E. 30th St. (closed Sunday and Monday), (317) 283-0035, In case that's not your thing: If it fits in a roasting tray, there's a decent chance you'll find it at Bar-B-Q Heaven. The eatery's ribs ($16.49 with two side) and pulled pork (listed as BBQ on bun, $13) are the headliners, but you can also find uber-tender pig feet ($10.49) and a treasure trove of sides and desserts including thick macaroni and cheese ($3.59 to $8) and chess pie ($4.29 per slice). Though a bit lacking in options for those with dietary restrictions, Bar-B-Q heaven is never short on nap-inducing comfort food.

MAGA Boxer Ryan Garcia Punches Back At Donald Trump: ‘I Can't Stay Silent…'
MAGA boxer Ryan Garcia has turned on Donald Trump and slammed the president over his administration's aggressive immigration raids in Los Angeles. Garcia has previously praised Trump as 'the best president' and shadowboxed for him during a visit to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. He even once wrote on social media, 'Love you Trump,' and fiercely defended him in other posts. But on Thursday, Garcia ripped Trump in response to his controversial immigration crackdown that has sparked protests in L.A. and to which Trump has deployed the National Guard, a move that has been slammed as a major, unneeded and divisive escalation by critics. 'I may have voted for Trump, but I can't stay silent about what's happening with ICE in L.A.,' Garcia wrote on X, formerly Twitter. 'These aren't just 'illegals' or statistics they're people,' pointed out the Victorville-born and raised pugilist, whose grandparents were born in Mexico and who often enters the ring with both the American and Mexican flags. 'Hardworking immigrants, especially Mexicans, who pay taxes, raise families, build our communities, and are part of the people we love,' Garcia continued. 'Ripping them away from their homes is not just policy it's pain. We can have borders without losing our humanity.' Garcia was last year expelled by the World Boxing Council for using racial slurs during a livestream. He's also come under fire for anti-LGBTQ remarks.

How Timothée Chalamet Popularized the ‘Old Money Haircut' for Men With a Modern Spin on Timeless Elegance
Long gone are the days of the Justin Bieber flow and all its side part glory. Now, a new style has been instated for men, one with just as much attitude but a lot more dimension. According to Fresha, Google search for 'old money haircut' saw a 122 percent increase in the last year and 5,000 search queries just this month, and it's all thanks to Timothée Chalamet, who famously chopped his mane over a year ago for his role as Bob Dylan in the 2024 biopic, 'A Complete Unknown.' Since then, the 29-year-old actor has kept his hair clipped in short, shaggy layers. More from WWD The 16 Best Hair Styling Tools, Tested and Reviewed by Editors Hailey Bieber's Rhode Earned $20 Million in Media Exposure After E.l.f. Beauty Acquired the Brand for $1 Billion Princess Beatrice's Royal Ascot Looks Through the Years: Favoring Florals in Zimmermann, Going Classic in Black-and-white Jonathan Simkhai and More The traditional 'old money haircut' belongs to the male beauty aesthetic of the 1950s. The style can only be described as a quiff with little to no hair sticking out from the sides. Chalamet, for the most part, has stayed true to this mold. However, he's also taken a more 'rough around the edges' approach, spiking little pieces on top of his head and flattening his bangs on his forehead like a brooding indie rocker. Othertimes, he's morphed into a James Dean doppelganger, combing his mane all the way back. Chalamet's longtime hairstylist Jamie Taylor, whose client list includes Patrick Schwarzenegger and Sebastian Stan, is responsible for the upkeep of his pompadour for major events and awards season appearances. Taylor notably groomed the 'Wonka' star on the night he received the David Award for Cinematic Excellence in Italy this past May, which also happened to be the same night he made his relationship with Kylie Jenner red carpet official. The hair architect was also behind Chalamet's soft curls for his Bleu de Chanel campaign images, the Screen Actors Guild Awards and the Oscars. The search interest in 'old money haircuts' comes after Chalamet was seen sitting courtside with the 'do at almost every New York Knicks game in May. The rising trend is also uniquely coinciding with diminishing interest in the 'rat boy' aesthetic, as popularized by girls on TikTok last summer. At its height, the term was used to describe male stars who were thought to have an unconventional, rodent-like look such as Matty Healy, Mike Faist, Harris Dickinson and Chalamet. In January, WWD reported seeing several quirky hairstyles during the men's fall 2025 presentations in Milan and Paris. Punk-inspired hairdos were spotted storming runways at Magliano and JordanLuca, while hair artist Ilham Mestour seemingly imagined a world in which men walk the streets looking like Albert Einstein for the Feng Chen Wang presentation.
