I love a good music and food mix as much as the next man, but the article posted below is hollaring at me to do a road trip down to Los Angeles just to see how good that combo can be. All my life I've associated a good barbeque with affiable company, tasty sides, loud music and cold beer. The grill masters of my youth weren't always the best back in those days, for I seem to remember the weenies and the ribs both being a bit on the charred side. In fact, I wouldn't cozy up to a grilled tubesteak for many, many years because of those off-tasting childhood memories. But still. The combination of food and music is classic, and these days I can't picture a summer going by without at least one good memory maker of a wild and crazy barbeque being held in my backyard.
So, if you're down in the Southland take a trip over to Echo Park and find out about these guys for me, will ya? The joint sounds like it has a pedigree written all over it. Connections to the fabled SXSW music festival in Austin, Carolina vinegar-tinged sauces, classic sides and a vinyl record store to boot. Oh, heck, let's just say that it doesn't matter what you have to say about that place. I know right now that "one smoked pork sandwich down in Echo Park" is already written down in my itinerary! See you there!
