Burrell's in Santa Ana. A hole in the wall place in the middle of a residential neighboorhood with years of articles in the paper on the wall. You will think you stepped into New Orleans when you are there.

Do you hear me?

 

I went to this little place that serves some good barbeque. I'm not sure what the place is called....but it's off the 10 frwy, West Covina Parkway. Right next to the Chevron gas station. There is a small shopping center there on the corner.

 

You came to the right person:

Its called Pinnacle Peak and there located in San Dimas. They have set hours, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND calling them to get their hours!!!

Enjoy!

Lucilles in Long Beach(2 locations) is pretty damm good. Everything is slow cooked for several hours.....real deep smokey flavor. I dunno about ribs falling off the bone, but you get that effect from boiling the ribs first, which is not what you are looking for. Avoid some overpriced crap like Mr. Cecils.

Lucilles has a place in Belmont shores and another one off Carson st( I think) in Long Beach. Also Brea and Torrance

My favorite item is the pork chops which are very smokey in the middle and have a sweet glaze. They are served with spiced apples and sweet potato cakes. If you want gravy on your mashed potatos you have to ask for it.

I know its a chain, but its very good and highly rated on online sites. Prices are comparable to Claim Jumper.

If 'ribs' are all you need help with in life ... then I'd say you're doing pretty well. =) So, how have you been buddy?

Here is another vote for Lucilles. I've gone to the one in Torrance, and I was very impressed with the taste - and the quantity!

 

Chris and Pitts in Bellflower, Anaheim or Woodland Hills

best BBQ and they haven't changed their decor in 50 years!

C'mon dude,

Chris & Pitts?

 

I would have to give another nod to Lucilles. The jalapeno cheese grits are the bomb and I dont like grits.

 

Lucilles in LB, and if youre ever out here in Pomona/Chino area, there's Joeys too.

damn...a G35 meet at Joeys or Lucilles would be a good way to spend a friday night
