Its by far my favorite BBQ joint in LA/OC. Never mind the fact that its in Compton. IMO, it's one of the best that Southern California has to offer.

They do Texas style BBQ there. Try the brisket and beef ribs (only available on weekends). Ask for sauce on the side.

Bludso's BBQ

i agree, the best i've had so far....great prices too, friendly staff....brisket is the best !!

I just found this place a couple of days ago. I agree it is great, and definitely ask for sauce on the side. It's great sauce but they do pile it on.

Thanks for the head's up. I'll have to stop here on our next family trip to Compton. My kids have been asking me to take them there ever since I had them watch Menace to Society with me.

Ok, all joking aside, I checked out the website and it looks pretty legit. I generally try to avoid going to LA at all costs, but I'm sure I'll be up there again and will have to give this a shot. Thanks for the info.

Bludso's is GREAT. The guy definitely knows his pit. His brisket is always great.
