MemberFuck West Coast LA motherfuckers!!!! Anything and everything from armenian bbq, korean bbq, traditional mexican barbacoa, you can't beat LA sushi etc etc
LA rocks because the majority of people here are transplants so there is anything and everything here and it's all got a twist of LA style to it.Also aside from Mexico itself NO ONE makes dog tacos like LA does.
@BC you never put veggies on the grill???
Oh yeah BTW I'm with @briscojr since when did memphis move from the south to the east coast?? How did they move it?? Did the people living there mind that they picked up memphis and moved it to the east coast??? And where did it move too on the east coast?? and why didn't the south complain about stealing one of their cities??

right on about kc and texas and i don't necessarily think there's anything wrong with vegetables on the grill as long as they are next to some protein.
there is a difference between 'bbq' and 'grilling.' bbq is cooking large pieces of tough meat low and slow. whereas grilling is cooking fast directly over high heat. people no doubt grill on the west coast but the art of barbecuing hasn't made it that way yet.
as far as memphis goes, i was just making the point that it is an eastern state and even though it isn't coastal it is in that geographic region that todosho didn't know bbq even existed in.

Membertodosho, I would agree that Tennessee is more southern than eastern but the context of the question is east vs west and it is more eastern than western by far.
@Almost6mexicans the south and east coast bbq's dont have SHIT on LA bbq's you want low and slow cooking you can't beat barbacoa, carnitas, or moles. FTW!!! LA BBQ is the best!!!
I would take pulled pork, spare ribs, country ham, and brisket over barbacoa, carnitas, or moles. And isn't mole just a sauce from a southern region of Mexico? Sure L.A. might prefer the Mexican style of BBQ, the rest of the country likes the real deal. need proof? just look to the Los Angeles Barbeque Festival
the main food attraction is Carolina, Memphis, KC, and Texas.

Member@Almost Thank you for proving my point
like I said we have EVERYTHING. BTW mole is all about bbq in fact it was the first and original bbq sauce. Barbacoa de cabeza is a specialty of slow cooked cow head that arose in the ranching lands of northern Mexico after the Spanish conquest. Except for cochinita pibil, one of the common characteristics of Mexican barbacoa is that marinades are not used and sauces are not applied until the meat is fully cooked (for examples of Mexican marinades, see carne de chango and carne al pastor). Pork cooked in this manner is generally referred to as carnitas rather than barbacoa.
Throughout Mexico, from pre-Mexican times to the present, barbacoa (the name derives from the Caribbean indigenous Taino barabicu) was the original Mexican barbecue, utilizing the many and varied moles (pronounced "mol-ehs", from Nahuatl molli) and salsa de molcajete, which were the first known barbecue sauces. Game, turkey, and fish along with beans and other side dishes were slow cooked together in a pit for many hours.Posted 6 months ago # -

like I said we have EVERYTHING.
how exactly did i prove your point?
i posted a link featuring the LA BBQ Fest and it didn't even feature mexican BBQ. it boils down to preference. i prefer american bbq, and you don't. you fail to answer my arguments that a higher percent of people would choose american bbq.

I kind of lost my appetite with "cow head". Not sure any amount of BBQ is going to make me ask for another helping of nostril.

Member@minja yes, i put veggies on the grill (corn, left in the husk is awesome!!!), but some people in LA only put veggies on the grill...and that's wrong like TBF...
@almost yes, i know there is a difference between bar-b-que & grilling...i am from the south...
my gf believes there is only one kind of bar-b-que: pulled pork with cole slaw on top, the "memphis" style...i'm not quite as picky as she is...
