The Memphis Grill

The 13 Best Barbecue Restaurants In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"For all the regional styles that can be found in LA, Memphis barbecue is still relatively underrepresented. Which is why The Memphis Grill in North Hollywood is worth seeking out. Every meal at this takeout-only operation needs to start with the pulled pork and baby back ribs, which are coated in a zesty reddish dry rub and served with tomato-based sauce on the side, which adds a nice tanginess that cuts through the rich, smoky meat. For pure value, we'd point you toward the combo plates with two meats and two sides (get the yams and collard greens). It's enough food for multiple meals." - brant cox, sylvio martins
