Big Ants BBQ #2 Reviews

So it seems the focus has changed to smash burgers. I tried the off-menu Brisket Smash burger and it was basically perfect. Tender smoked brisket, a dab of barbecue sauce, pickles, onions, and some tasty beef patties and cheese. I hope that there will be some other creative burgers in the future.
Maybe someday I'll find that peanut butter and jelly with root beer grilled onions burger again.
Old review: Really enjoyed this smokey jewel of Ktown. Good American BBQ is not the most common food in LA. This nice little spot has skill and goodness to spare. Ribs came off the bone, hot link perfectly cooked, and excellent coleslaw. Cornbread was good but could have been paired better with greens or baked beans. And the spicy BBQ sauce lives to its name.
I'll be happy to return again.

Wow! We just ordered out a dozen pork ribs. They were amazing. Incredible side of coleslaw - spicy and just the right texture. I had a glass of wine inside while waiting - beautiful space. Looking forward to coming back for more food.

I got food poisoning from here last week. I ordered the brosket and beans. 1 week later and I still have diarrhea. And I know it was from here because its the only thing I ate that day. By night time, I had vomit, nausea and diarrhea. Tasted good but never coming back.

Decided to get lunch here seemed pretty good. After getting some ribs and corn bread. The corn bread was dryer than the Sahara dessert crumbling as soon as you grab it, not sure what kind of rub they use but it doesn't taste good on the ribs. Completely waist of lunch and money not cheap either. Definitely my first and last time for me at this place.

I don't want to leave a negative review because I understand how important ratings are. HOWEVER this chicken does not taste smoked. I would definitely compare it to rotisserie chicken covered in BBQ sauce. If you're in the mood for smoked food, this ain't it.

Husband and I have been wanting to check this place out for a while now... So glad we decided to stop by today! I got the brisket nachos and my husband got the brisket plate with beans, cornbread, and an added hot link. Delicious food at a fair price and REALLY NICE staff!! We'll definitely be back!

FORGET ABOUT IT!!!
Price got jacked up another $2 ($14) and no more cash deal; what’s worst is that they did not even tell it to the customer, no customer courtesy, n people noticed so no lines, I’m not coming back either.
WOW! Meat lover’s heaven! Chicken and Links are good; Brisket is great; Rib (baby back) is melt in your mouth; best of all, the portion is almost as twice as other place. Did I mention the price? chicken & links plates are $10; brisket & rib are $12; both with two sides; I usually get two rib plates all for me (w spice sauce) and I am in heaven. :)

One of the best places I have started eating from the food and items are packed with love and care and the taste of each item is just perfect with there smokey flavor the people here are profesionals and know what there doing every item I've tried so far has exceeded expectations if you want to eat at a place that serves you big quality portions that fill you up and make you feel grateful with every bite and at a very good price also I highly suggest coming here.

Heard about this place from a friend a week or 2 ago.
The brisket is juicy. Has a nice bark and flavor. The spicy link is good. But not too much of a kick. The spicy BBQ sauce does have a kick. And unless I'm wrong, has tamarind. I like it. Corn bread is moist and not overly sweet. Slaw is slaw.
I'll be back for more brisket. But I do have to try everything else too.
Definitely a smokehouse worth going to regularly.
Edit: Service was great too!
