"Run by a former restaurant chef, Zef BBQ is best known for hulking beef “dino ribs,” prime brisket, and Santa Maria-style tri-tip. But don’t overlook the creative side dishes, which flip from things like loaded mole fries to smoked curry cauliflower weekly. The only catch is the fairly complex ordering process: preorders are placed online on Wednesday mornings (before they sell out) and picked up on the weekend at a to-be-named location in Simi Valley." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
