4.5 stars. I don't consider myself to be a connoisseur of BBQ, I just follow my taste buds. I caught a glimpse of a Food Network feature on Jay Bee's, and being (relatively) local, I decided to give...

Hell yeah. Awesome bbq can be found here. While the brisket was great, the pork shoulder is definitely the reason to go here.

Visited the shack - twice now. Both times - the food itself was worth the drive into a secluded primarily industrial area of Gardena. The BBQ is excellent, great smoky flavor. The price is reasonable. The...

I only order a slab of pork ribs to go. Uncut and dry, with hot sauce on the side. These are the tastiest and tenderest ribs I have had in the Los Angeles area for the past 20-25 years.

This place is good but it's in a bad area. I've been there a little over 10 times and the food is always good. It's very easy to over eat at this place. If you don't mind going into a semi-dangerous area to...
