Bludso’s
BBQ-Teaxs
style
BBQ
in
Los
Angeles.
One
of
four
I
found
in
my
research
and
the
closest
to
the
hotel.
Good
reviews
so
we
went
for
it.
Food
turned
out
to
be
real
hit
and
miss.
No
multi
meat
platters
here.
All
ala
carte/family
style.
All
sides
cost
$6.50
for
half
a
pint
including
slaw!!
No
green
beans.
Meats
were
mostly
standard
issue-brisket
lean
or
fatty,
pork
ribs,
pulled
pork,
ribs
tips,
chicken.
Also
smoked
jackfruit
and
a
chicken
link.
The
unique
meat
on
the
menu
IMO
was
the
beef
ribs
by
half
and
full
rack!
And
reasonably
priced
at
$17
for
a
half
rack.
We
see
beef
ribs
other
places
at
upwards
of
$30
each
bone.
I
think
the
difference
is
how
they
are
cut/part
of
cow.
The
ribs
served
here
were
obviously
the
same
as
you
would
find
cut
from
a
prime
rib/sold
in
grocery,
beef
back
ribs.
I
believe
the
larger
type
ribs
seen
elsewhere
are
a
plate
short
rib
cut
from
a
different
section
of
the
steer.
I
immediately
asked
if
they
were
out
of
anything
and
was
told
no
but
he'd
check.
Came
back
to
tell
us
that
only
one
beef
rib
half
rack
left.
Jumped
on
that
immediately.
Waiter
suggested
just
ordering
one
thing
at
a
time
as
food
came
out
quickly.
Hmmmm.
After
major
missteps
in
the
past
when
ordering
brisket
at
dinner
elsewhere,
decided
to
skip
today.
Chose
to
add
the
quarter
rack
pork
ribs,
A
portion
of
slaw,
a
potato
roll,
and
piece
of
cornbread.
I
will
say
unequivocally
that
both
meats
were
delicious.
Well
rendered
bark,
rub
redolent
of
black
pepper
possibly
too
heavy
for
some
really
pervasive
flavor.
Moist,
lovely
rosy
smoke
ring,
and
a
heady
smoke
flavor
profile.
They
use
post
oak
here
I
believe-should
have
asked.
The
meats
were
delicious
without
sauce
so
wasn’t
needed
but
served
with
two
different
versions
regular
and
spicy.
We
were
told
this
after
trying
and
then
and
both
had
very
nice
flavor.
We
don't
do
spicy
but
the
one
labeled
so
was
not
a
problem
for
us.
The
meat
experience
here
was
a
solid
A.
Can't
say
the
same
for
other
items.
Slaw
was
typical
with
maybe
a
bit
more
black
pepper
than
the
majority
we've
found.
I
liked
it,
wife
not
as
much.
But
no
way
was
it
worth
$6.50.
No
chopped
cabbage
with
dressing
would
be.
Normally
we
might
have
added
say
some
green
beans-n/a-or
potato
salad
but
at
the
price
per
serving
just
no
way.
The
potato
roll
was
a
potato
hamburger
bun!!
Listed
as
from
a
famous
Pennsylvania
bakery.
Not
worth
it
IMO.
The
cornbread
was
warm,
a
nice
portion,
and
served
with
honey
butter.
But
it
was
so
dry
and
crumbly
that
the
first
bite
spread
crumbs
across
a
wide
portion
of
my
plate.
Not
enjoyable.
Only
ate
half.
I
would
love
to
just
use
an
A
grade
but
the
drawbacks
bring
it
down
to
a
B
minus.
They
do
know
what
they
are
doing
with
the
meats,
that
I’m
sure
of.
