Hi there
As part of a commitment to the Great American road trip (the 'Eating' sub-category :-D), will be in the LA area on Tue&Wed 6/7 Sep (driving up/down from SF before and after). We did Jockos last trip as a day-long sidetrip, but more dedicated this time to LA.
So, looking for some Brethren assistance in digging out the gems. Am looking not only for straight BBQ (e.g. Bludso's - what are the other current faves ... on the web the list is quite long), would love to have tried some that are closed or gone (APL?). I am very interested in the grilling side of things (need to try some tritip close to it's US spiritual home - have tried the Brazilian real deal) ... but especially interested in Mexican/BBQ overlap (missed Valentina's when we went to Austin) or even straight Mexican (any reluctance in this regard results from years of bean-dominated stodge in NZ/Australia labelled as 'Mexican').
Actually, when I think about it we are up for anything (why isn't Smorgasburg open 7 days ... and what about the Korean thing!) so as long as you recommend it, we'll give it a go, time permitting.
