Hello r/FoodLosAngeles!

I used to post a few years ago about BBQs for delivery and, while I still love BBQs, I haven't posted much about them, partly because I found myself justifying the price so often. Not everyone understood that I tended to a fire for 16 hours on top of all the shopping at 3 different places and the years of experience and recipe testing and late nights and, and, and.

It felt sorta wrong, like there was a better answer. The customer shouldn't be required to understand all of that to understand the value of the food. But, the opposite is also true. I can make changes behind the scenes and lean on my knowledge and expertise to, still making a high quality product, to make it easier and less expensive to mass produce... or rather produced in a little more mass. While most businesses might try to make more money off that, I want to use that to charge less and, when combined with the fact that a millionaires working on becoming a billionaire doesn't need to get paid, I can charge a lot less.

Only $10 for a sandwich! No deliveries, no pre-orders (although if you tell me you are interested, I will be happy), I will be on the corner of N Berendo and Hollywood Blvd, across the street from Barnsdall this Sunday from 12 to 7 PM.

I posted last week and the response was incredible! I cant tell you all how much I appreciate the support! I sold more sandwiches in the first 30 minutes than I did the entire Sunday prior!! I sold out and I will have more to do what I can to feed everyone who shows up.

Incase this is the first you are seeing this post, I smoke beef short rib over red oak, with onions, bell peppers, garlic and cheddar cheese on handmade rolls, $10 a sandwich. I am on the corner of N Berendo St and Hollywood this Sunday (and every Sunday) from 12 to 7.

I am doing something new this week, I will have roasted jalapenos, if you are a fan of those. I am not 100% on the second addition this weekend, but I will try to have an au jus/demi glace/hearty beef stock type dipping sauce, neither addition will cost any extra. I appreciate those who stood around with me talking about food and helped me figure out some awesome upgrades to the food! Perfection is of course impossible and there is always room for improvement and there are quite a few that gave me some extremely helpful ideas that should make the food better!

I've also been working on a handmade chili oil mayo recipe and I will try to add it to the menu next weekend - again, at no additional cost. I just want to make the food as high quality as possible, while keeping costs as low as possible

Hello r/FoodLosAngeles!

These past 2 weeks have been incredible, thank you for coming out to support my sandwiches! In September I will be adding a Saturday location moving around, so far I have Burbank, West Side, The Valley and South Bay requested. If you have any great spots, let me know!

I will, once again, be in the same spot, N Berendo St and Hollywood from 12 to 7 PM (or until sold out).

The sandwiches are smoked short rib, onions, colored bell peppers, garlic and cheddar cheese on handmade rolls, $10 a sandwich and I will have soda and chips for an extra $1 each (I have the real sugar Mexican cokes this week, still just $1)

I have sold out every week since I started posting! Thank you so much for all of the support and I have loved getting to know everybody! You are all such nice people!!

SOLID SMASH.

yes, its on the pricey side but they are consistent!

Curly fries were perfect, shout out to the crew at Los Feliz.

Homemade hot pastrami out of Los Feliz!

I’m back on Saturday August 16. Pre-order is available now, link to order in the comments!

I’m back with another Hot Pastrami Popup in Los Feliz this Saturday March 8th. I’m a one man operation making hot pastrami sandwiches out of my kitchen at home. Link to preorder below in the comments.

Great balanced meal at great value IMO. They charge too much for side sauces but still, it's delicious.

yes, yes, and fuck yes! u/tony_pops is making sandwiches again next weekend, and i couldn’t be more excited to have one again.

Goldburger was advertising their tribute to the Langer’s 19 (made with RC Provisions pastrami - same source, but Langer’s is specially prepared for them) and since Goldburger is walking distance for me I decided to go over and try it.

1. It’s not quite the Langer’s 19, no rye bread, toasted, and much much smaller.

2. The pastrami is good but the steaming of the Langer’s meat makes a huge difference.

3. The sandwich is much cheaper ($14) than Langer’s but i think next time im going back to the LA burger - which is pastrami on top of the Goldburger.

Verdict: good sandwich, but I probably will not repeat since Goldburger is my favorite (and closest) burger spot to me.

Awesome Mexican joint in Highland Park. Fun vibes, great staff, great drinks. And this mushroom taco is pretty good. (Sorry there wasn’t a Highland Park tag!)

as delicious as always, one of my favorite pop-ups! u/tony_pops makes one hell of a sandwich.

After hearing nothing but rave reviews for years, I finally decided to give DeSano a try. Boy was I disappointed. Maybe I caught them on an off-day but this was one of the worst pizzas I’ve had in LA. The crust was straight up bad. It was gummy and flaccid. I get that it’s a Neapolitan style pizza but usually those have crusts that puff up nicely and have good char and a nice bite. This was none of those things. The sausage was low quality frozen mass produced stuff that reminded me of my high school cafeteria’s pizza. The pepperoni was also mid. At least the cheese and sauce were decent. Actually I really liked the sauce but that’s not enough to redeem things.

Did I get the wrong type of pizza? I thought the DeSano was actually one of the most popular ones. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by Sei, Mozza and Bestia but hell, even Pit Fire was way better than this.

Given the overwhelming positive sentiment about DeSano I might give them another chance some time in the future. Until then they’re gonna stay in the “over-hyped” category for me.

They'll start selling things tomorrow but are waving passers-by inside for free stuff.

EDIT: It's Boichik

Hello everyone! Thank you so much for all the interest in my food! I just wanted to let yall know that I'm officially sold out! Again! I'll be back next weekend. Thank you everyone for all the support and interest!

Small, but mighty. Very underrated burger and a hidden gem.
