Bludso's Bar-B-Que 11022 Aviation Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90045

"It’s difficult to find a BBQ spot in LA that brings you back to your Midwest roots. This is the closest you’ll find. When you order, get their fries. They are addicting."

"Hit or miss. The first time I went the brisket and short rib was super tender and lean. The next time it was tough and fatty. The pork ribs are also tough with hardly any meat. Portions are small either way, and this place is expensive. Lunch for 3 was $60 not worth it."

"This place is inside the Proud Bird. It has a gigantic parking lot, totally easy to get into. It's about as big as a Costco really. Also spacious inside with a couple of different choices to accommodate friends with diverse tastebuds. There's the bbq style joint, burgers and pizza. The elote was a surprise hit. My boyfriend and I got a full rack of ribs with a 1/4 lb. of brisket. Probably should have gotten a side because it was salty af. But delicious, because we finished it all between the two of us. My friend got the classic burger and fries. Very American, standard fare. Our keto meal was about $20/person so not bad. Would come back but I'd be interested in trying other things on the menu. P.S. you can hear planes flying to and from LAX. Their aviation theme is on point."

"The ribs are kind of spicy, and the included sauce on the side was sweet and tangy. Not sure if I would get the ribs again. The brisket was very tender, and I would get those again"
